Targeting neurokinin-3 receptor: a novel anti-angiogenesis strategy for cancer treatment.
Article in Oncotarget, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis, controlling angiogenesis is a promising strategy in cancer treatment. However, thus farther severe side effects of anti-angiogenic drugs have been rather demonstrated, stimulating interest in seeking novel targets of anti-angiogenesis. Neurokinin receptors, also known as tachykinin receptors, are usually considered as drug targets due to diverse physiological functions and their tractability. Although Neurokinin B, the selective natural agonist of neurokinin-3 receptor, have been shown to exhibit anti-angiogenesis activity, the effect and mechanism of neurokinin-3 receptor-mediated angiogenesis still remains unclear. In the present study, we demonstrated that [Mephe7]NKB, an analogue of NKB, possess significant anti-angiogenic effect on CAM. Furthermore, by introducing the tumor angiogenesis homing sequence (NGR), we designed and synthesized two novel agonist analogues of NK3R, NK3R-A1 and NK3R-A2. Both of the two analogues exhibit more efficient anti-migration effect on HUVECs by activating NK3R in vitro, and showed potent antitumor activities with no significant side effects in vivo. Taken together, our results illuminated that NK3R might be a potential novel target for the anti-angiogenesis therapy. Notably, NK3R-A1 might be used as a template for the development of the anti-tumor drugs on the basis of the anti-angiogenesis strategy.
