Natural Compounds as Protease Inhibitors in Therapeutic Focus on Cancer Therapy.
Review in Anti-cancer agents in medicinal chemistry, 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
Proteases are implicated in every hallmark of cancer and have complicated functions. For cancer cells to survive and thrive, the process of controlling intracellular proteins to keep the balance of the cell proteome is essential. Numerous natural compounds have been used as ligands/ small molecules to target various proteases that are found in the lysosomes, mitochondria, cytoplasm, and extracellular matrix, as possible anticancer therapeutics. Promising protease modulators have been developed for new drug discovery technology through recent breakthroughs in structural and chemical biology. The protein structure, function of significant tumor-related proteases, and their natural compound inhibitors have been briefly included in this study. This review highlights the most current frontiers and future perspectives for novel therapeutic approaches associated with the list of anticancer natural compounds targeting protease and the mode and mechanism of proteinase-mediated molecular pathways in cancer.
