Self-Assembled Daunorubicin/Epigallocatechin Gallate Nanocomplex for Synergistic Reversal of Chemoresistance in Leukemia.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Chemoresistance is one of the major challenges for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a bioactive polyphenol from green tea, has attracted immense interest as a potential chemosensitizer, but its application is limited due to the need for effective formulations capable of co-delivering EGCG and anti-leukemic drugs. Herein, we describe the formation and characterization of a micellar nanocomplex self-assembled from EGCG and daunorubicin, an anthracycline drug for the first-line treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. This nanocomplex was highly stable at pH 7.4 but stimulated to release the incorporated daunorubicin at pH 5.5, mimicking an acidic endosomal environment. More importantly, the nanocomplex exhibited superior cytotoxic efficacy against multidrug-resistant human leukemia cells over free daunorubicin by achieving a strong synergism, as supported by median-effect plot analysis. The observed chemosensitizing effect was in association with enhanced nucleus accumulation of daunorubicin, elevation of intracellular reactive oxygen species and caspase-mediated apoptosis induction. Our study presents a promising strategy for circumventing chemoresistance for more effective leukemia therapy.
