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).

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.

Two modes of microsatellite instability in human cancer: differential connection of defective DNA mismatch repair to dinucleotide repeat instability.
PMID 15778432 · PMC1067522 · Nucleic acids research · 2005 · 8 claims · 8 setups

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.
