Chirality-Dependent Supramolecular Biomaterials Remodeling of Scar Microenvironment via Integrin-Mediated Regulation for Hypertrophic Scars Therapy.
Article in Nano-micro letters, 2026. 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
Hypertrophic scars, characterized by excessive fibroblast activation, present significant clinical challenges. Current treatments (e.g., laser, surgery, steroids) face limitations: Surgery is costly and associated with high recurrence rates, while pharmacological interventions often induce pain and exhibit low bioavailability or efficacy. To address this, we engineered a novel chiral supramolecular biomaterial derived from L-/D-phenylalanine and D-phenylalanine (L/DP) with well-defined nanostructure and optical activity. L/DP achieved biomimetic integration and stereoselective regulating of integrin β1 (ITGβ1) in scar tissue. In vitro, LP suppressed fibroblast proliferation by downregulating ITGβ1 (72%), inhibiting FAK/PI3K/AKT signaling and TGF-β1. In vivo (rabbit ear HS model), LP reduced scar thickness (54%), collagen deposition (39%), and α-SMA expression (45%), outperforming conventional drugs by 23%. This chirality-directed strategy provides a drug-free, painless, and highly effective HS therapy via integrin-mediated remodeling of the scar microenvironment and holds substantial clinical promise.
