Engineered small extracellular vesicle-mediated NOX4 siRNA delivery for targeted therapy of cardiac hypertrophy.
Article in Journal of extracellular vesicles, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
Small-interfering RNA (siRNA) therapy is considered a powerful therapeutic strategy for treating cardiac hypertrophy, an important risk factor for subsequent cardiac morbidity and mortality. However, the lack of safe and efficient in vivo delivery of siRNAs is a major challenge for broadening its clinical applications. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are a promising delivery system for siRNAs but have limited cell/tissue-specific targeting ability. In this study, a new generation of heart-targeting sEVs (CEVs) has been developed by conjugating cardiac-targeting peptide (CTP) to human peripheral blood-derived sEVs (PB-EVs), using a simple, rapid and scalable method based on bio-orthogonal copper-free click chemistry. The experimental results show that CEVs have typical sEVs properties and excellent heart-targeting ability. Furthermore, to treat cardiac hypertrophy, CEVs are loaded with NADPH Oxidase 4 (NOX4) siRNA (siNOX4). Consequently, CEVs@siNOX4 treatment enhances the in vitro anti-hypertrophic effects by CEVs with siRNA protection and heart-targeting ability. In addition, the intravenous injection of CEVs@siNOX4 into angiotensin II (Ang II)-treated mice significantly improves cardiac function and reduces fibrosis and cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area, with limited side effects. In conclusion, the utilization of CEVs represents an efficient strategy for heart-targeted delivery of therapeutic siRNAs and holds great promise for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy.
