Unveiling Promising PARP12 Inhibitors through Virtual Screening for Cancer Therapy.
Article in Current pharmaceutical design, 2025. 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
backgroundPoly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 12 (PARP12) plays a crucial role in DNA damage response (DDR) through DNA repair, maintaining genomic stability. Mutations in PARP12 contribute to genomic instability, leading to cancer progression. Targeting PARP12 mutants with small molecule inhibitors offers a promising therapeutic strategy.
objectiveThis study aims to identify potent inhibitors for PARP12 mutants using molecular docking-based virtual screening from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) compound library, followed by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to validate binding stability.
methodsHomology models of human PARP12 mutants were developed for virtual screening. The topscoring compounds were refined through molecular docking, and their stability was analyzed using allatomistic MD simulations. Binding free energy (MMGBSA) calculations and structural dynamics assessments, including RMSD, RMSF, RoG, and SASA, were conducted to evaluate the drug-receptor interactions.
resultsThree promising inhibitors, NCI-32743, NCI-32982, and NCI-659779, demonstrated high binding affinity and stability with PARP12 mutants. These compounds showed significant inhibitory potential, maintaining strong interactions with the target protein throughout the simulation period. ADMET and pharmacokinetic analyses confirmed their drug likeness and potential for further development.
conclusionThe identified inhibitors exhibit strong potential for targeting PARP12 mutants in cancer therapy. Further
