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

D-Peptides, as the enantiomers of the naturally occurring L-peptides, usually resist endogenous proteases and are presumably insensitive to most enzymes. But, it is unclear whether or how a phosphatase catalyzes the dephosphorylation from D-peptides. In this work, we examine the formation of the nanofibers of D-peptides via enzymatic dephosphorylation. By comparing the enzymatic hydrogelation of L-peptide and D-peptide based hydrogelators, we find that the chirality of the precursors of the hydrogelators affects little on the enzymatic hydrogelation resulted from the removal of the phosphate group from a tyrosine phosphate residue. The attachment of a therapeutic agent (e.g., taxol) or a fluorophore (e.g., 4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole) to the D-peptide based hydrogelators affords a new type of biostable or biocompatible hydrogelators, which may find applications in intratumoral chemotherapy or intracellular imaging, respectively. This work, as the first comprehensive and systematic study of the unexpected enzymatic dephosphorylation of D-peptides, illustrates a useful approach to generate supramolecular hydrogels that have both biostability and other desired functions.
