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

Well-characterized selective inhibitors of protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) are invaluable chemical tools for testing biological and therapeutic hypotheses. Based on 4, a fragment-like inhibitor of type I PRMTs, we conducted structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies and explored three regions of this scaffold. The studies led to the discovery of a potent, selective, and cell-active dual inhibitor of PRMT4 and PRMT6, 17 (MS049). As compared to 4, 17 displayed much improved potency for PRMT4 and PRMT6 in both biochemical and cellular assays. It was selective for PRMT4 and PRMT6 over other PRMTs and a broad range of other epigenetic modifiers and nonepigenetic targets. We also developed 46 (MS049N), which was inactive in biochemical and cellular assays, as a negative control for chemical biology studies. Considering possible overlapping substrate specificity of PRMTs, 17 and 46 are valuable chemical tools for dissecting specific biological functions and dysregulation of PRMT4 and PRMT6 in health and disease.
