Matrine alkaloids modulating DNA damage repair in chemoresistant non-small cell lung cancer cells.
Article in BMC cancer, 2024. 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
backgroundNon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents a significant challenge in the medical field due to its high incidence and resistance to chemotherapy. Chemoresistance in NSCLC diminishes treatment efficacy and contributes to poor patient outcomes. Matrine alkaloids have shown promise in reversing chemotherapy resistance in NSCLC by targeting DNA repair mechanisms.
methodsUtilizing molecular dynamics simulations, we explored the interactions between Matrine alkaloids and DNA repair-related proteins to elucidate their impact on NSCLC cells. In vitro experiments involved treating A549/DDP cells with Matrine alkaloids to evaluate their sensitizing effects on lung cancer cells. Additionally, animal model experiments were conducted to validate the therapeutic potential of Matrine alkaloids in NSCLC treatment.
resultsOur findings demonstrate that Matrine alkaloids disrupt DNA damage repair processes in NSCLC cells, leading to increased sensitivity to chemotherapy. Molecular docking studies revealed the intricate mechanisms by which Matrine alkaloids interact with DNA repair proteins, impacting cell survival and proliferation. Both cell experiments and animal models confirmed the chemosensitizing effects of Matrine alkaloids in NSCLC treatment.
conclusionMatrine alkaloids offer a promising avenue for overcoming chemotherapy resistance in NSCLC by interfering with DNA repair pathways. This study lays a solid foundation for future clinical investigations into the potential of Matrine alkaloids as effective therapeutic agents for enhancing NSCLC treatment outcomes.
