Preventive effect of Tyr-Pro, a blood-brain barrier transportable dipeptide, on memory impairment in SAMP8 mice.
Article in NPJ science of food, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In a series of studies on blood-brain barrier transportable peptides, a soybean dipeptide, Tyr-Pro, penetrated the mouse brain parenchyma after oral intake and improved short and long memory impairment in acute Alzheimer's model mice. Here, we aimed to clarify the anti-dementia effects of this peptide administered to SAMP8 mice prior to dementia onset. At the end of the 25-week protocol in 16-week-old SAMP8 mice, Tyr-Pro (10 mg/kg/day) significantly improved the reduced spatial learning ability compared with that in the control and amino acid (Tyr + Pro) groups as indicated by the results of Morris water maze tests conducted for five consecutive days. The hippocampus and cortex regions of SAMP8 harvested after the test showed lower amyloid ß (Aß) accumulation in the Tyr-Pro group than those in the control and amino acid groups. Consistent with the lower level of Aß, decreased expression of ß-secretase (BACE1) and markedly increased expression (4-times higher) of insulin degrading enzyme (IDE) were obtained compared to those in the control group. Collectively, we demonstrated that long-term daily intake of the dipeptide Tyr-Pro in SAMP8 mice may be sufficient for maintaining cognitive ability by preventing excess Aß accumulation through downregulated BACE1 and particularly upregulated IDE.
