Emerging roles of α/β hydrolase domain (ABHD) proteins in S-palmitoylation modification: molecular mechanisms, structural features, and pathological implications.
Review in Cellular & molecular biology letters, 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
S-palmitoylation, a reversible post-translational modification, regulates critical biological processes and represents a promising therapeutic target for diverse human diseases. Over the past decade, human α/β hydrolase domain (ABHD) proteins have emerged as key regulators of the dynamic S-palmitoylation/depalmitoylation cycle, yet a systematic overview of their roles in this modification remains lacking. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the functions of emerging ABHD proteins-including ABHD17A/B/C, ABHD16A, ABHD10, ABHD7, and ABHD8-in the dynamics of S-palmitoylation and depalmitoylation cycle, along with their molecular mechanisms, structural features, and substrate specificities. Associations between dysregulated ABHD protein-mediated S-palmitoylation and various diseases, including cancers, neurological disorders, degenerative diseases, viral infectious diseases, metabolic diseases, and reproductive disorders are discussed. Predictive criteria for uncharacterized ABHD proteins and prospective targeted therapeutic strategies are also proposed. This review provides mechanistic insights into emerging ABHD proteins in S-palmitoylation/depalmitoylation, and lays a foundation for developing novel diagnostic markers and precision therapies for S-palmitoylation-related diseases.
