Chelidonine overcomes P-gp-mediated adriamycin resistance in MCF-7/ADR cells by inhibiting PDGFR
Article in Chinese herbal medicines, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective: Chemoresistance represents a major obstacle in breast cancer (BC) treatment. Chelidonine could prevent various tumor cell types. However, the effect and mechanism of chelidonine against BC chemotherapy resistance have not been elucidated. This paper aimed to explore the effect and mechanism of chelidonine on BC chemoresistance. Methods: A CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy were applied to evaluate the resistance reversal effect of chelidonine on MCF-7/ADR cells. The signaling pathways by which chelidonine suppresses BC were predicted by network pharmacology and validated by Western blotting. The chemoresistant reversal mechanism of chelidonine was clarified using platelet-derived growth factor receptor- Results: Chelidonine remarkably reversed adriamycin (ADR) resistance by decreasing P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression and the efflux of ADR in MCF-7/ADR cells. Additionally, PDGFR Conclusion: These findings underscore the potential role of PDGFR
