Multiscale modeling shows how 2'-deoxy-ATP rescues ventricular function in heart failure.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
2'-deoxy-ATP (dATP) improves cardiac function by increasing the rate of crossbridge cycling and Ca[Formula: see text] transient decay. However, the mechanisms of these effects and how therapeutic responses to dATP are achieved when dATP is only a small fraction of the total ATP pool remain poorly understood. Here, we used a multiscale computational modeling approach to analyze the mechanisms by which dATP improves ventricular function. We integrated atomistic simulations of prepowerstroke myosin and actomyosin association, filament-scale Markov state modeling of sarcomere mechanics, cell-scale analysis of myocyte Ca[Formula: see text] dynamics and contraction, organ-scale modeling of biventricular mechanoenergetics, and systems level modeling of circulatory dynamics. Molecular and Brownian dynamics simulations showed that dATP increases the actomyosin association rate by 1.9 fold. Markov state models predicted that dATP increases the pool of myosin heads available for crossbridge cycling, increasing steady-state force development at low dATP fractions by 1.3 fold due to mechanosensing and nearest-neighbor cooperativity. This was found to be the dominant mechanism by which small amounts of dATP can improve contractile function at myofilament to organ scales. Together with faster myocyte Ca[Formula: see text] handling, this led to improved ventricular contractility, especially in a failing heart model in which dATP increased ejection fraction by 16% and the energy efficiency of cardiac contraction by 1%. This work represents a complete multiscale model analysis of a small molecule myosin modulator from single molecule to organ system biophysics and elucidates how the molecular mechanisms of dATP may improve cardiovascular function in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
