Mechanism of BIP-4 mediated inhibition of InsP3Kinase-A.
Article in Bioscience reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Overexpression of the neuronal InsP3kinase-A increases malignancy of different tumor types. Since InsP3kinase-A highly selectively binds Ins(1,4,5)P3, small molecules competing with Ins(1,4,5)P3 provide a promising approach for the therapeutic targeting of InsP3kinase-A. Based on this consideration, we analyzed the binding mechanism of BIP-4 (2-[3,5-dimethyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-5, 8-dinitro-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)-dione), a known competitive small-molecule inhibitor of Ins(1,4,5)P3. We tested a total of 80 BIP-4 related compounds in biochemical assays. The results of these experiments revealed that neither the nitrophenyl nor the benzisochinoline group inhibited InsP3kinase-A activity. Moreover, none of the BIP-4 related compounds competed for Ins(1,4,5)P3, demonstrating the high selectivity of BIP-4. To analyze the inhibition mechanism of BIP-4, mutagenesis experiments were performed. The results of these experiments suggest that the nitro groups attached to the benzisochinoline ring compete for binding of Ins(1,4,5)P3 while the nitrophenyl group is associated with amino acids of the ATP-binding pocket. Our results now offer the possibility to optimize BIP-4 to design specific InsP3Kinase-A inhibitors suitable for therapeutic targeting of the enzyme.
