Binding and Kinetic Analysis of Human Protein Phosphatase PP2A Interactions with Caspase 9 Protein and the Interfering Peptide C9h.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The serine/threonine phosphatase PP2A and the cysteine protease Caspase 9 are two proteins involved in physiological and pathological processes, including cancer and apoptosis. We previously demonstrated the interaction between Caspase 9 and PP2A and identified the C9h peptide, corresponding to the binding site of Caspase 9 to PP2A. This interfering peptide can modulate Caspase 9/PP2A interaction leading to a strong therapeutic effect in vitro and in vivo in mouse models of tumor progression. In this manuscript, we investigate (I) the peptide binding to PP2A combining docking with molecular dynamics and (II) the secondary structure of the peptide using CD spectroscopy. Additionally, we compare the binding affinity, using biolayer interferometry, of the wild-type protein PP2A with Caspase 9 and vice versa to that observed between the PP2A protein and the interfering peptide C9h. This result strongly encourages the use of peptides as new therapeutics against cancer, as shown for the C9h peptide already in clinical trial.
