Structural basis of human VANGL-PRICKLE interaction.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Planar cell polarity (PCP) is an evolutionarily conserved process for development and morphogenesis in metazoans. The well-organized polarity pattern in cells is established by the asymmetric distribution of two core protein complexes on opposite sides of the cell membrane. The Van Gogh-like (VANGL)-PRICKLE (PK) pair is one of these two key regulators; however, their structural information and detailed functions have been unclear. Here, we present five cryo-electron microscopy structures of human VANGL1, VANGL2, and their complexes with PK1 at resolutions of 2.2-3.0 Å. Through biochemical and cell imaging experiments, we decipher the molecular details of the VANGL-PK interaction. Furthermore, we reveal that PK1 can target VANGL-containing intracellular vesicles to the peripheral cell membrane. These findings provide a solid foundation to understand the explicit interaction between VANGL and PK while opening new avenues for subsequent studies of the PCP pathway.
