Roles of ADP-Ribosyltransferases in Cancer.
Review in Oncology research, 2026. 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
ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs) regulate key processes in cancer, including DNA repair, transcription, immune responses, and treatment resistance. The clostridial toxin-like ADP-ribosyltransferase (ARTC) family and the diphtheria toxin-like ADP-ribosyltransferase (ARTD) family play a crucial role in genomic stability by modification of proteins either with mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation (MARylation) or poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation). These ARTs are promising therapeutic targets and could serve as biomarkers in cancer management. This review explores the roles of these enzymes and current knowledge on specific inhibitors. A literature search was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar to identify studies published between 1992 and 2025 on ADP-ribosyltransferases and their roles in cancer. Among ARTC family, ART1 and ART3 modulate the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathway, influencing angiogenesis, tumor growth, and immune evasion via cluster of differentiation 8+ (CD8+) T-cell apoptosis. Within the ARTD family, poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP)1 and PARP2 are activated by DNA single-strand breaks and are clinically validated targets in cancers with homologous recombination deficiency, such as breast cancer susceptibility genes 1/2 (BRCA1/2)-mutated breast cancer. Their inhibition exemplifies synthetic lethality and has shown clinical efficacy. Four PARP inhibitors, olaparib, niraparib, rucaparib, are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved. Despite these advances, selective inhibitors for ARTs remain underexplored. Ongoing research focuses on overcoming PARP inhibitor resistance, improving biomarker-driven patient selection, and expanding therapeutic strategies that target ART-related pathways.
