Tumor-targeted liposomes with platycodin D2 promote apoptosis in colorectal cancer.
Review in Materials today. Bio, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Conventional chemotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC), though efficacious, is discouraging due to its limited targeting capability, lack of selectivity, and chemotherapy-associated side effects. With the advent of nanomedicines, a liposomal delivery system making use of a combination of anticancer phytochemicals is fast gaining popularity as one of the most promising nanoplatforms for CRC treatment. Rising evidence supports phytochemicals such as platycosides for their anticancer potency. To this end, a combination therapy including tumor-targeted liposomes along with phytochemicals might have a greater therapeutic potential against cancer. In this study, we developed acidity-triggered rational membrane (ATRAM) along with conjugated platycodin D2 (PCD2) and liposomes (PCD2-Lipo-ATRAM) as a tumor-targeting therapy. The PCD2-Lipo-ATRAM treatment demonstrated a successful tumor-targeting ability in the CRC xenografts, in which PCD2 not only exerted a potent antitumor effect by inducing apoptotic cell death and but also functioned as a liposome membrane stabilizer. Moreover, PCD2-Lipo-ATRAM suppressed antiapoptotic BCL-2 family proteins, resulting in enhanced cytotoxicity toward CRC cells by inducing intrinsic caspase-9/-3 mediated apoptosis. Thus, our data has shown that tumor-targeting PCD2-based liposomal systems represent a promising strategy for CRC therapy, since they directly target the tumors, unlike other therapies that can miss the target.
