Celastrol Derivative/DOX Co-Assembled Nanodrug for Enhanced Antitumor Therapy.
Article in Current drug delivery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionMultidrug resistance (MDR) is a key challenge in clinical chemotherapy. The combination of drugs can effectively reverse multi-drug resistance.
objectiveIn this study, doxorubicin (DOX) was capsulated into nanoparticles formed by an amphiphilic PEGylated-poly (α-lipoic acid)-methanamide analogue of celastrol (mPEG-PαLA-CEN) prodrug polymer. CEN was linked to the branched chain of poly (α-lipoic acid) by forming ester bonds. DOX was physically trapped inside the nanoparticles via electrostatic interaction. Both drugs can be simultaneously released in response to low pH and high GSH in order to overcome DOX resistance.
methodsThe chemical structure of the mPEG-PαLA-CEN-DOX NPs was confirmed through
resultsCEN/DOX-loaded nanoparticles were found to have spherical shapes with diameters of around 229.7 nm. The NPs exhibited high biocompatibility and released 92% DOX and 71.8% CEN in response to low pH and high GSH of tumor microenvironments. As dual drug-loaded nanoparticles, the efficacy of mPEG-PαLA-CEN-DOX NPs against tumor cell lines
conclusionIn conclusion, this study demonstrated that PEGylated poly (α-lipoic acid)-CEN copolymers can be used not only as biocompatible, stimulation-responsive anticancer drug nanocarriers but also as chemosensitizers to overcome multidrug resistance, which provide a theoretical base for clinical application of CEN/DOX nanodrug.
