Assay of Sphingosine 1-phosphate Transporter Spinster Homolog 2 (Spns2) Inhibitors.
Article in SLAS discovery : advancing life sciences R & D, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) pathway remains an active area of research for drug discovery because S1P modulators are effective medicine for autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis. As such, other nodes in the pathway can be probed for alternative therapeutic candidates. As S1P elicits its function in an 'outside-in' fashion, targeting the transporter, Spns2, which is upstream of the receptors, is of great interest. To support our medicinal chemistry campaign to inhibit S1P transport, we developed a mammalian cell-based assay. In this protocol, Spns2 inhibition is assessed by treating HeLa, U-937, and THP-1 cells with inhibitors and S1P exported in the extracellular milieu is quantified by LC-MS/MS. Our studies demonstrated that the amount of S1P in the media in inversely proportional to inhibitor concentration. The details of our investigations are described herein.
