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).

The role of MYH and microsatellite instability in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer.
PMID 17031395 · PMC2360566 · British journal of cancer · 2006 · 8 claims · 8 setups
MYH-associated colorectal cancers can develop through either a chromosomal instability pathway or a microsatellite instability (MSI) pathway, contradicting the assumption that these are mutually exclusive.
