Synthetic progress and anti-leukemic research on indirubin analogues: a review since 2010.
Review in RSC advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Indirubin, an active component of the traditional Chinese medicine Indigo Naturalis, has drawn significant attention owing to its remarkable anti-leukemia activity. Nevertheless, it presents issues such as limited natural resources, poor solubility, and potential toxicity, which impede its clinical application. In recent years, within the research realm of indirubins, the efficient synthetic strategies and the exploration in the treatment of leukemia have remained the central research focuses in this field. This article comprehensively reviews the research advancements of indirubin derivatives in synthesis strategies and anti-leukemia effects since 2010s. Firstly, in this review, the synthetic methods of indirubin derivatives are categorized into two main types: chemical synthesis and bio & biomimetic synthesis. Among these, chemical methods assume a dominant position. These chemical synthesis approaches encompass acid-catalyze, organophosphorus-catalyzed, metal-catalyzed reactions, and one-step reduction reactions using KBH4. Secondly, based on the modification sites within the structure of indirubin, this paper undertakes a classified review of its derivatives and further delves deeply into the anti-leukemia activities of these derivatives. Additionally, we also discuss the future development directions of synthesizing indirubin derivatives and explore their structure-activity relationships in the context of anti-leukemia research. We firmly believe that this review can offer information support for scientific researchers engaged in the study of indirubin's anti-leukemia effects, thereby facilitating in-depth development.
