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

The DNA sequence 5'-ACGCGT-3' is in the core site of the Mlu 1 cell-cycle box, a transcriptional element in the promoter region of human Dbf4 gene that is highly correlated with a large number of aggressive solid cancers. The polyamide formamido-imidazole-pyrrole-imidazole-amine(+) (f-Im-Py-Im-Am(+) ) can target the minor groove of 5'-ACGCGT-3' as an antiparallel stacked dimer and has shown good activity in inhibiting transcription factor binding. Recently, f-Im-Py-Im-Am(+) derivatives that involve different orthogonally positioned substituents were synthesized to target the same binding site, and some of them have displayed improved binding and pharmacological properties. In this study, the gel electrophoresis-ligation ladders assay was used to evaluate the conformational effects of f-Im-Py-Im-Am(+) and derivatives on the target DNA, an essential factor for establishing the molecular basis of polyamide-DNA complexes and their transcription factor inhibition. The results show that the ACGCGT site in DNA has a relatively wide minor groove and a B-form like overall structure. After binding with f-Im-Py-Im-Am(+) derivatives, the DNA conformation is changed as indicated by the different mobilities in the gel. These conformational effects on DNA will at least help to point to the mechanism for the observed Mlu 1 inhibition activity of these polyamides. Therefore, modulating DNA transcription by locking the DNA shape or altering the minor groove geometry to affect the binding affinity of certain transcription factors is an attractive possible therapeutic mechanism for polyamides. Some of the substituents are charged with electrostatic interactions with DNA phosphate groups, and their charge effects on DNA gel mobility have been observed.
