Rhodamine-marked bombesin: a novel means for prostate cancer fluorescence imaging.
Article in Investigational new drugs, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The gastrin releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) has been found to be strongly expressed in various types of cancers such as prostate and breast carcinomas. The GRPR ligands gastrin releasing peptide and bombesin can play a very significant role in cancer therapy and diagnostics. In this study we synthesized unlabeled bombesin BBN along with two conjugates in which the correct bombesin (BBN-Rhd) and a mutant bombesin (mBBN-Rhd) sequence was coupled to rhodamine, a fluorescent dye. These novel rhodamine fluorescent conjugates were used to study the targeting and uptake of bombesin on a cellular level. Nine different human cell lines including both tumor and healthy cells were examined using flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy. GRPR mRNA expression analysis was performed and it was found that the receptor is highly expressed in LNCaP and PC3 cells compared to the rest of other cell lines. Competition experiments were performed to verify the receptor dependence of the labeled conjugates using unmarked bombesin. The present study is a first attempt at direct fluorescence imaging of living cells using bombesin and its target, the GRPR. A rhodamine bombesin conjugate can be used as marker to differentiate between healthy cells and malignant cells such as prostate hyperplasia and prostate carcinoma in the early detection of cancer.
