Novel cyclopeptides for the design of MMP directed delivery devices: a novel smart delivery paradigm.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeMatrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are a family of proteolytic enzymes, the expression of which in a key step of tumor progression has been better defined recently. The studies highlighted the ongoing need for very specific inhibitors, substrates or release devices designed to be selective for one or at least very few MMPs.
methodsThis report deals with the design, synthesis and in vitro evaluation of linear and especially novel cyclic peptidic moieties, embodying MMP cleavable sequences designed to answer these questions. FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) labelling via chromophore-modified amino-acids was used to give access to enzyme kinetics.
resultsEvaluation of these peptides showed that cyclisation gives rise to high specificity for certain MMP, suggesting that this approach could provide very specific MMP substrate. Moreover, cyclic structures present a very good plasma stability.
conclusionsThese original derivatives could allow the design of MMP-controlled delivery devices, the specificity of which will be retained in complex biological media and in vivo.
