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

Intracellular delivery of functional proteins is a promising, but challenging, strategy for many therapeutic applications. Here, we report a new methodology that overcomes drawbacks of traditional mesoporous silica (MSi) particles for protein delivery. We hypothesize that engineering enhancement in interactions between proteins and delivery vehicles can facilitate efficient encapsulation and intracellular delivery. In this strategy, surface lysines in proteins were modified with a self-immolative linker containing a terminal boronic acid for stimulus-induced reversibility in functionalization. The boronic acid moiety serves to efficiently interact with amine-functionalized MSi through dative and electrostatic interactions. We show that proteins of different sizes and isoelectric points can be quantitatively encapsulated into MSi, even at low protein concentrations. We also show that the proteins can be efficiently delivered into cells with retention of activity. Utility of this approach is further demonstrated with gene editing in cells, through the delivery of a CRISPR/Cas9 complex.
