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

In humans, peptides derived from dietary proteins and peptide-like drugs are transported via the proton-dependent oligopeptide transporter hPepT1 (SLC15A1). hPepT1 is located across the apical membranes of the small intestine and kidney, where it serves as a high-capacity low-affinity transporter of a broad range of di- and tripeptides. hPepT1 is also overexpressed in the colon of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, where it mediates the transport of harmful peptides of bacterial origin. Therefore, hPepT1 is a drug target for prodrug substrates interacting with intracellular proteins or inhibitors blocking the transport of toxic bacterial products. In this study, we construct multiple structural models of hPepT1 representing different conformational states that occur during transport and inhibition. We then identify and characterize five ligands of hPepT1 using computational methods, such as virtual screening and QM-polarized ligand docking (QPLD), and experimental testing with uptake kinetic measurements and electrophysiological assays. Our results improve our understanding of the substrate and inhibitor specificity of hPepT1. Furthermore, the newly discovered ligands exhibit unique chemotypes, providing a framework for developing tool compounds with optimal intestinal absorption as well as future IBD therapeutics against this emerging drug target.
