Proteomic Analysis of Histone Sequence Variants and Post-translationally Modified Forms.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2026. 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
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histone variants are the key mechanisms driving epigenetic regulation. They play a crucial role in modulating chromatin structure and gene activity. As epigenetics has become a foundational aspect of molecular biology, the precise characterization of histones is essential for understanding gene regulation, cellular plasticity, and the molecular basis of diseases.Mass spectrometry in combination with liquid chromatography has emerged as the leading technology for mapping and quantification of histone peptidoforms. It offers exceptional sensitivity and resolution to unravel the complexity of the epigenetic landscape. Despite its advantages, the inherent diversity of histone isoforms and PTMs presents analytical challenges, and no universal workflow currently enables comprehensive and unbiased profiling of the overall state of histone modifications.This chapter presents key methodologies for histone analysis using bottom-up proteomics, including protocols for histone extraction, enzymatic digestion, and chemical derivatization prior to LC-MS/MS. It also provides details of specific aspects of LC-MS/MS analysis and outlines strategies for data evaluation and interpretation. The clinical potential of histone proteomics is illustrated through a case study focusing on the characterization of histones in human sperm in the context of male infertility.
