Delivery of BACE1 siRNA mediated by TARBP-BTP fusion protein reduces β-amyloid deposits in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
Article in Journal of biosciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Systemic delivery of nucleic acids to the central nervous system (CNS) is a major challenge for the development of RNA interference-based therapeutics due to lack of stability, target specificity, non-permeability to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and lack of suitable carriers. Using a designed bi-functional fusion protein TARBP-BTP in a complex with siRNA, we earlier demonstrated knockdown of target genes in the brain of both AβPP-PS1 (Alzheimer's disease, AD) and wild-type C57BL/6 mice. In this report, we further substantiate the approach through an extended use in AβPP-PS1 mice, which upon treatment with seven doses of β-secretase AβPP cleaving Enzyme 1 (BACE1) TARBP-BTP:siRNA, led to target-specific effect in the mouse brain. Concomitant gene silencing of BACE1, and consequent reduction in plaque load in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus (greater than 60%) in mice treated with TARBP-BTP:siRNA complex, led to improvement in spatial learning and memory. The study validates the efficiency of TARBP-BTP fusion protein as an efficient mediator of RNAi, giving considerable scope for future intervention in neurodegenerative disorders through the use of short nucleic acids as gene specific inhibitors.
