Computational assessment of the relationship between metabolism and histone methylation in cancer cells.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aberrant histone methylation and metabolic alterations are key hallmarks of cancer. Metabolic reprogramming during tumorigenesis could impact the histone methylation pattern by altering the availability of substrates and cofactors required for histone methyltransferases (HMTs) and demethylases (HDMs) activities. Despite advances in understanding this complex interplay, quantitative information about the contributions of specific metabolic shifts and histone methylation dynamics remains poorly understood. Here, we used multi-omics data integrated with machine learning models to discover key metabolites, genes, and pathways predictive of histone methylation levels in cancer cell lines. Our cell line models highlighted the significant role of metabolites associated with one-carbon, nucleotide, redox and lipid metabolism on histone marks. Validation in primary tumors confirmed the cell line models' findings. Overall, this study quantifies the contributions of the metabolic network to histone methylation variation in cancer cells.
