1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) are usually positive charged peptides and have good cell membrane permeability. Meanwhile, CPPs are facile to synthesize, and can be functionalized to satisfy different demands, such as cyclization, incorporating unnatural amino acids, and lipid conjugation. These properties have made them as efficient drug-delivery tools to deliver therapeutic molecules to cells and tissues in a nontoxic manner, including small molecules, DNA, siRNA, therapeutic proteins and other various nanoparticles. However, the poor serum stability and low tumor targeting ability also hindered their broad application. Besides, inappropriate chemical modification can lead to membrane disruption and nonspecific toxicity. In this paper, we first reviewed recent advances in the CPP applications for cancer therapy via covalent or non-covalent manners. We carefully analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of each CPP modifications for drug delivery. Then, we concluded the recent progress of their clinical trials for different diseases. Finally, we discussed the challenges and opportunities CPPs met to translate into clinical applications. This review presented a new insight into CPPs for drug delivery, which could provide advice on the design of clinically effective systemic delivery systems using CPPs.
