P18: Novel Anticancer Peptide from Induced Tumor-Suppressing Cells Targeting Breast Cancer and Bone Metastasis.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe skeletal system is a common site for metastasis from breast cancer. In our prior work, we developed induced tumor-suppressing cells (iTSCs) capable of secreting a set of tumor-suppressing proteins. In this study, we examined the possibility of identifying anticancer peptides (ACPs) from trypsin-digested protein fragments derived from iTSC proteomes.
methodsThe efficacy of ACPs was examined using an MTT-based cell viability assay, a Scratch-based motility assay, an EdU-based proliferation assay, and a transwell invasion assay. To evaluate the mechanism of inhibitory action, a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based GTPase activity assay and a molecular docking analysis were conducted. The efficacy of ACPs was also tested using an ex vivo cancer tissue assay and a bone microenvironment assay.
resultsAmong the 12 ACP candidates, P18 (TDYMVGSYGPR) demonstrated the most effective anticancer activity. P18 was derived from Arhgdia, a Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor alpha, and exhibited inhibitory effects on the viability, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells. It also hindered the GTPase activity of RhoA and Cdc42 and downregulated the expression of oncoproteins such as Snail and Src. The inhibitory impact of P18 was additive when it was combined with chemotherapeutic drugs such as Cisplatin and Taxol in both breast cancer cells and patient-derived tissues. P18 had no inhibitory effect on mesenchymal stem cells but suppressed the maturation of RANKL-stimulated osteoclasts and mitigated the bone loss associated with breast cancer. Furthermore, the P18 analog modified by N-terminal acetylation and C-terminal amidation (Ac-P18-NH2) exhibited stronger tumor-suppressor effects.
conclusionsThis study introduced a unique methodology for selecting an effective ACP from the iTSC secretome. P18 holds promise for the treatment of breast cancer and the prevention of bone destruction by regulating GTPase signaling.
