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

objectiveThe present study focused to build pyridine and quinazoline rings in a single molecule and designed a new fused Pyrido[2,1-b] quinazoline to have a better pharmacological activity. MATERIAL AND

methodsA three component, one-pot synthesis of substituted-1H-Pyrido[2,1-b] quinazoline derivatives has been described by conventional and microwave synthesis using triflic acid as catalyst. These compounds were screened for in vitro cytotoxic activity against the panel of cancer cell lines A549, NCI-H460, HT-29, HCT-15, DU-145, and HFL.

resultsAmong the tested compounds, 11-(1-benzyl-1H-indol-3-y1)-2, 3, 4, 11-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[2,1-b] quinazoline (4i) showed most potent cytotoxicity against A549 and NCI-H460 lung cancer cell lines with IC50 values 4.57±0.25 and 5.53±0.49 µM, respectively. Moreover, compound 4i was found to be most potent considerable cell growth inhibition with GI50 values of 2.70±0.18 and 3.24±0.40 µM against A549 and NCI-H460 cell lines, respectively. In addition, induction of apoptosis for compound 4i on A549 was investigated by morphological changes, Acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) and DAPI staining. Furthermore, a strong anti-clonogenic effect of compound 4i on lung cancer cells was observed. The flow cytometric analysis investigation reveals that compound 4i arrests the A549 cancer cell lines at the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle. Molecular docking were also performed on 4i, 4j, and erlotinib to predict the binding mode towards the EGFR kinase (PDB code: 1M17) and the compounds have displayed similar interactions and compared with erlotinib.

conclusionOverall, these findings could suggest that the compound 4i would be an ideal lead as an anticancer agent.
