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 all-hydrocarbon peptide stapling strategy has recently been extensively explored in drug discovery. There remains the potential for improvement regarding the retention of the amino acid side chains at the stapled positions. Herein, we describe a new series of amino acids that not only contain the native side chains, but also carry the alkenyl arms that are needed for the ring-closing stapling chemistry. We incorporate the new amino acids into a β-catenin-binding domain of Axin (469-482) and develop a new category of stapled peptides with the retention of the native side chains. These stapled peptides exhibit high α-helicity, strong proteolytic stability and good cell permeability. Biochemical experiments demonstrate that these stapled peptides can activate β-catenin more efficiently than canonical stapled peptides due to the presence of extra side chains. We expect that the new side-chain-retention stapling method would expand the scope of the all-hydrocarbon stapled peptide strategy by retaining some important peripheral residues for protein-protein interactions or preserving key hydrophilic side chains to improve solubility.
