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 application of gene-editing technology is currently limited by the lack of safe and efficient methods to deliver RNA-guided endonucleases to target cells. We engineered lentivirus-based nanoparticles to co-package the U6-sgRNA template and the CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) fused with a virion-targeted protein Vpr (Vpr.Prot.Cas9), for simultaneous delivery to cells. Equal spatiotemporal control of the vpr.prot.cas9 and gag/pol gene expression (the presence of Rev responsive element, RRE) greatly enhanced the encapsidation of the fusion protein and resulted in the production of highly efficient lentivector nanoparticles. Transduction of the unconcentrated, Vpr.Prot.Cas9-containing vectors led to >98% disruption of the EGFP gene in reporter HEK293-EGFP cells with minimal cytotoxicity. Furthermore, we detected indels in the targeted endogenous loci at frequencies of up to 100% in cell lines derived from lymphocytes and monocytes and up to 15% in primary CD4+ T cells by high-throughput sequencing. This approach may provide a platform for the efficient, dose-controlled and tissue-specific delivery of genome editing enzymes to cells and it may be suitable for simultaneous endogenous gene disruption and a transgene delivery.
