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

Bromodomain-containing proteins 7 and 9 (BRD7 and BRD9) have been considered as potential targets of clinical drug design toward treatment of human cancers and other diseases. Multiple short molecular dynamics simulations and binding free energy predictions were carried out to decipher the binding selectivity of three inhibitors 4L2, 5U6, and 6KT toward BRD7 and BRD9. The results show that 4L2 has more favorable binding ability to BRD7 over BRD9 compared to 5U6 and 6KT, while 5U6 and 6KT possess more favorable associations with BRD9 than BRD7. Furthermore, estimations of residue-based free energy decompositions further identify that four common residue pairs, including (F155, F44), (V160, V49), (Y168, Y57) and (Y217, Y106) in (BRD7, BRD9) generate obvious binding differences with 4L2, 5U6, and 6KT, which mostly drives the binding selectivity of 4L2, 5U6, and 6KT to BRD7 and BRD9. Dynamic information arising from trajectory analysis also suggests that inhibitor bindings affect structural flexibility and motion modes, which is responsible for the partial selectivity of 4L2, 5U6, and 6KT toward BRD7 and BRD9. As per our expectation, this study theoretically provides useful hints for design of dual inhibitors with high selectivity on BRD7 and BRD9.
