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

Cytosolic delivery of peptides remains a challenging task owing to their susceptibility to enzymatic degradation and the existence of multiple intracellular barriers. Here, we report a new strategy to address these issues by decoration of a fluorous tag on the terminal of cargo peptides. The fluorous-tagged peptides were assembled into nanostructures, efficiently internalized by cells via several endocytic pathways and released into the cytosol after endosomal escape. They were relatively stable against enzymatic degradation and showed much higher efficiency than nonfluorinated analogs and cell penetrant peptide-conjugated ones. The proposed strategy also efficiently delivered a proapoptotic peptide into specific sites in the cells and restored the function of cargo peptide after cytosolic delivery. The fluorous-tagged proapoptotic peptide efficiently inhibited tumor growth in vivo. This study provides an efficient fluorination strategy to promote the cytosolic delivery of peptides.
