Tc-99m-labeled RGD-conjugated alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone hybrid peptides with reduced renal uptake.
Article in Amino acids, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 purpose of this study was to examine whether the replacement of the positively-charged Lys or Arg linker with a neutral linker could reduce the renal uptake of Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)-conjugated alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) hybrid peptide. The RGD motif {cyclic(Arg-Gly-Asp-DTyr-Asp)} was coupled to [Cys(3,4,10), D-Phe(7), Arg(11)]α-MSH3-13 {(Arg(11))CCMSH} through the neutral βAla or Ahx {aminohexanoic acid} linker (replacing the Lys or Arg linker) to generate novel RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH hybrid peptides. The receptor-binding affinity and cytotoxicity of RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH were determined in B16/F1 melanoma cells. The melanoma targeting and imaging properties of (99m)Tc-RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and (99m)Tc-RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH were determined in B16/F1 melanoma-bearing C57 mice. The replacement of the Lys or Arg linker with the βAla or Ahx linker retained nanomolar receptor-binding affinities and remarkable cytotoxicity of RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH. The receptor-binding affinities of RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH were 0.8 ± 0.05 and 1.3 ± 0.1 nM. Three-hour incubation with 0.1 µM of RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH decreased the survival percentages of B16/F1 cells by 71 and 67 % as compared to the untreated control cells 5 days post the treatment. The replacement of the Arg linker with the βAla or Ahx linker reduced the non-specific renal uptake of (99m)Tc-RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH and (99m)Tc-RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH by 62 and 61 % at 2 h post-injection. (99m)Tc-RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH displayed higher melanoma uptake than (99m)Tc-RGD-Ahx-(Arg(11))CCMSH at 0.5, 2, 4, and 24 h post-injection. Enhanced tumor to kidney uptake ratio of (99m)Tc-RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH warranted the further evaluation of (188)Re-labeled RGD-βAla-(Arg(11))CCMSH as a novel MC1 receptor-targeting therapeutic peptide for melanoma treatment in the future.
