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 TIPE2 (tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced protein 8-like 2) protein is a major regulator of cancer and inflammatory diseases. The availability of its sequence and structure, as well as the critical amino acids involved in its ligand binding, provides insights into its function and helps greatly identify novel drug candidates against TIPE2 protein. With the current advances in deep learning and molecular dynamics simulation-based drug screening, large-scale exploration of inhibitory candidates for TIPE2 becomes possible. In this work, we apply deep learning-based methods to perform a preliminary screening against TIPE2 over several commercially available compound datasets. Then, we carried a fine screening by molecular dynamics simulations, followed by metadynamics simulations. Finally, four compounds were selected for experimental validation from 64 candidates obtained from the screening. With surprising accuracy, three compounds out of four can bind to TIPE2. Among them, UM-164 exhibited the strongest binding affinity of 4.97 µM and was able to interfere with the binding of TIPE2 and PIP2 according to competitive bio-layer interferometry (BLI), which indicates that UM-164 is a potential inhibitor against TIPE2 function. The work demonstrates the feasibility of incorporating deep learning and MD simulation in virtual drug screening and provides high potential inhibitors against TIPE2 for drug development.
