1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Telomeric DNA and C-myc22 are DNA G-quadruplex (G4)-forming sequences associated with tumorigenesis. Ligands that can facilitate the formation and increase the stabilization of G4 can halt tumor cell proliferation and have been regarded as potential anti-cancer drugs. In the present study, we have investigated the interaction of 11 natural alkaloids with G4 formed by telomeric DNA and C-myc22 sequences. Our results indicated that sanguinarine (San), palmatine (Pal), and berberine (Beb) of the first series (S1) can induce the formation of G4 as well as increase the stabilization ability. Daurisoline (S2-1), O-methyldauricine (S2-2), O-diacetyldaurisoline (S2-3), daurinoline (S2-4), dauricinoline (S2-5), N,N'-dimethyldauricine iodide (S2-6), and N,N'-dimethyldaurisoline iodide (S2-7) of the second series (S2) showed similar stabilization ability. We found that unsaturated ring C, N(+) positively charged centers, and conjugated aromatic rings are key factors to increase the stabilization ability of S1, and we gave some advice on structure modification to S2 through structure-activity study. Besides, we found San and Pal to be cell cycle blocker in G(1). San was speculated to bind to G4 through intercalation or end stacking.
