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).

Microsatellite instability and mismatch repair gene inactivation in sporadic pancreatic and colon tumours.
PMID 10389971 · PMC2363009 · British journal of cancer · 1999 · 6 claims · 5 setups
Microsatellite instability is common in sporadic pancreatic cancer but occurs at a uniformly low rate and is not accompanied by hMLH1/hMSH2 alterations, suggesting it does not drive pancreatic tumorigenesis.
