Dusquetide modulates innate immune response through binding to p62.

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
SQSTM1/p62 is an autophagic receptor that plays a major role in mediating stress and innate immune responses. Preclinical studies identified p62 as a target of the prototype innate defense regulator (IDR); however, the molecular mechanism of this process remains unclear. Here, we describe the structural basis and biological consequences of the interaction of p62 with the next generation of IDRs, dusquetide. Both electrostatic and hydrophobic contacts drive the formation of the complex between dusquetide and the ZZ domain of p62. We show that dusquetide penetrates the cell membrane and associates with p62 in vivo. Dusquetide binding modulates the p62-RIP1 complex, increases p38 phosphorylation, and enhances CEBP/B expression without activating autophagy. Our findings provide molecular details underlying the IDR action that may help in the development of new strategies to pharmacologically target p62.
