Design, synthesis, and STING-agonistic activity of benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide derivatives.
Article in Molecular diversity, 2024. 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
STING is an important immune-associated protein that localizes in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Upon being activated by its agonists, STING triggers the IRF and NF-κB pathways, which generates type I interferons and proinflammatory cytokines, and ultimately primes the innate immune responses to achieve valid antitumor efficacy. We designed and synthesized a series of benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide derivatives. Through STING-agonistic activity evaluation, compounds 12d and 12e exhibited marginal human STING-activating activities. Western blot analysis demonstrated that both 12d and 12e treatment increased the phosphorylation of the downstream signaling molecules (TBK1 and IRF3) of STING. The proposed binding mode of 12d/12e and STING protein displayed that two canonical hydrogen bonds, a π-π stacking interaction, as well as a π-cation interaction formed between the agonist and the CDN-binding domain of STING protein.
