Experiments
Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

Using random walks to identify cancer-associated modules in expression data.
PMID 24128261 · PMC4015830 · BioData mining · 2013 · 8 claims · 8 setups

Application of proteomics in the study of tumor metastasis.
PMID 15862116 · PMC5172469 · Genomics, proteomics & bioinformatics · 2004 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Cell function is directly regulated through proteins, not genes or mRNA, so metastasis-related gene findings need protein-level validation via proteomics.

MSI test to distinguish between HNPCC and other predisposing syndromes -- of value in tailored surveillance.
PMID 15528791 · PMC3839337 · Disease markers · 2004 · 8 claims · 5 setups
MSI (or immunohistochemistry) testing applied to a pre-selected patient with a family history or early-onset colorectal cancer can distinguish HNPCC from unknown non-HNPCC colorectal cancer syndromes.
