Virtual High-Throughput Screening of Ligands for Disrupting PRMT5/pICLn Interaction in Prostate Cancer Cells.

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
Prostate cancer (PC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men worldwide. While androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is initially effective, many patients develop resistance, progressing to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Recent studies have identified the interaction between PRMT5 (protein arginine methyltransferase 5) and pICLn as a promising therapeutic target, as it promotes the transcription of double-strand break (DSB) repair genes that contribute to therapy resistance. To target this pathway, a screening campaign identified J021-0199 as a potential hit compound that disrupts the PRMT5/pICLn interaction. Biochemical assays demonstrated that J021-0199 binds to the N-terminal TIM barrel domain of PRMT5. In CRPC cell lines (LNCaP and 22Rv1), J021-0199 selectively inhibited cancer cell growth. qPCR analysis further revealed downregulation of DNA damage response (DDR) genes involved in homologous recombination, nonhomologous end joining, and G2 arrest. These results support J021-0199 as a promising lead compound for overcoming resistance in CRPC.
