Investigation of Strand-Selective Interaction of SNA-Modified siRNA with AGO2-MID.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) has been recognized as a powerful gene-silencing tool. For therapeutic application, chemical modification is often required to improve the properties of siRNA, including its nuclease resistance, activity, off-target effects, and tissue distribution. Careful siRNA guide strand selection in the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) is important to increase the RNA interference (RNAi) activity as well as to reduce off-target effects. The passenger strand-mediated off-target activity was previously reduced and on-target activity was enhanced by substitution with acyclic artificial nucleic acid, namely serinol nucleic acid (SNA). In the present study, the reduction of off-target activity caused by the passenger strand was investigated by modifying siRNAs with SNA. The interactions of SNA-substituted mononucleotides, dinucleotides, and (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPO)-labeled double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) with the MID domain of the Argonaute 2 (AGO2) protein, which plays a pivotal role in strand selection by accommodation of the 5'-terminus of siRNA, were comprehensively analyzed. The obtained nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data revealed that AGO2-MID selectively bound to the guide strand of siRNA due to the inhibitory effect of the SNA backbone located at the 5' end of the passenger strand.
