Natural Compounds Targeting Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP): A Promising Therapeutic Strategy for Atopic Dermatitis.
Article in Biomolecules, 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
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with rising prevalence, marked by eczematous lesions, itching, and a weakened skin barrier often tied to filaggrin gene mutations. This breakdown allows allergen and microbe entry, with thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) playing a crucial role by activating immune pathways that amplify the allergic response. TSLP's central role in AD pathogenesis makes it a promising therapeutic target. Consequently, in this study, we used the virtual drug screening, molecular dynamics simulation, and binding free energies calculation approaches to explore the African Natural Product Database against the TSLP protein. The molecular screening identified four compounds with high docking scores, namely SA_0090 (-7.37), EA_0131 (-7.10), NA_0018 (-7.03), and WA_0006 (-6.99 kcal/mol). Furthermore, the KD analysis showed a strong binding affinity of these compounds with TSLP, with values of -5.36, -5.36, -5.34, and -5.32 kcal/mol, respectively. Moreover, the strong binding affinity of these compounds was further validated by molecular dynamic simulation analysis, which revealed that the WA_0006-TSLP is the most stable complex with the lowest average RMSD. However, the total binding free energies were -40.5602, -41.0967, -27.3293, and -51.3496 kcal/mol, respectively, showing the strong interaction between the selected compounds and TSLP. Likewise, these compounds showed excellent pharmacokinetics characteristics. In conclusion, this integrative approach provides a foundation for the development of safe and effective treatments for AD, potentially offering relief to millions of patients worldwide.
