Quantitative Top-Down Proteomics Reveals Significant Differences in Histone Proteoforms Between Metastatic and Nonmetastatic Colorectal Cancer Cells.
Article in Proteomics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) development is closely associated with the accumulation of both genetic and epigenetic alterations. Many efforts have been made to investigate the role of epigenetic modifications in CRC metastasis. In this work, we present the quantitative top-down proteomics study focusing on histone proteoforms between metastatic (SW620) and nonmetastatic (SW480) CRC cells to reveal potentially critical histone proteoforms in CRC metastasis. We isolated histone proteins from CRC cells, fractionated them by sodium dodecyl-sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), and analyzed them by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). A total of 230 histone proteoforms were quantified in SW480 and SW620 cell lines, among which 34 proteoforms were significantly altered in abundance in the metastatic cells, indicating a significant transformation of histone proteoforms during metastasis. We observed a significant increase in abundance of all nine differentially expressed histone H4 proteoforms in metastatic SW620 cells compared to SW480 cells, while differentially expressed proteoforms of other histone proteins display diversified expression patterns. Additionally, two histone H2A proteoforms with a combination of N-terminal acetylation and phosphorylation were upregulated in the metastatic CRC cells. These differentially expressed histone proteoforms could be novel proteoform biomarkers of CRC metastasis.
