Development of a biomimetic nanoparticle platform for apigenin therapy in triple-negative breast cancer.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: This study investigates the therapeutic potential and mechanisms of Apigenin (AGN) in treating triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Although AGN is recognized for its anti-tumor properties, its specific mechanisms in TNBC remain unclear. Methods: To identify key genes associated with AGN's effects on breast cancer, we utilized network pharmacology, conducting Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses. We developed a macrophage membrane-coated nanomicelle system (m@peg-AGN) to enhance drug delivery and facilitate immune evasion. Results: Our analyses identified 21 overlapping genes between AGN and breast cancer, including CDH1, TP53, and CCND1, critical in cancer progression. The m@peg-AGN system demonstrated superior immune evasion and effective tumor targeting, resulting in good tumor suppression without detected toxicity in major organs. Conclusions: This study demonstrated the targeted tumor genes to TNBC for AGN, then innovatively integrates network pharmacology with biomimetic nanotechnology, developing a novel m@peg-AGN delivery system for TNBC treatment. This system enhanced the AGN's water solubility and increased the accumulation to the tumor site. This compound has exhibited good anti-tumor effects
