1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) is an attractive drug target for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study aimed to create a lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based peptide-proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC), specifically BCL6-PROTAC, to develop effective strategies for treating DLBCL via targeted degradation of the BCL6 protein. Molecular docking, SPR and cellular thermal shift assays revealed that F1324 (Ac-LWYTDIRMSWRVP-OH) is a high-affinity BCL6-binding peptide. PROTAC LNPs were synthesized by modifying F1324 and pomalidomide aptamers onto LNPs via a covalent chemical reaction in a certain proportion. The LNPs were characterized using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. The ligand ratio (F1324:pomalidomide) used to verify the optimal BCL6 degradation was 1:5, as determined using western blotting. In vitro and in vivo studies revealed that BCL6-PROTAC significantly inhibited the proliferation of DLBCL cells. Target-specific uptake was used to evaluate the accumulation of BCL6-PROTAC in vivo. Toxicity in normal tissues was detected using H&E staining and serum indices. Overall, we developed a PROTAC that exhibited persistent and excellent BCL6 degradation ability in DLBCL, with an excellent safety profile. Thus, our BCL6 degrader provides a complementary approach to existing clinical‑stage candidates.
