1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Expression of a receptor for human macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF or CSF-1), containing a point mutation which changes an aspartate to a valine at position 802 of the activating loop of the kinase domain, potently transforms the haemopoietic cell line FDC-P1 yet prevents Rat-2 fibroblast transformation. In order to understand this apparent paradox, aspartate 802 was changed by cassette mutagenesis to each of the other 19 amino acids. All hydrophobic amino acid substitutions were transforming when tested in FDC-P1 cells yet inactivating when tested in Rat-2 fibroblasts. These same amino acid substitutions also activated receptor degradation, strongly suggesting a causal relationship between receptor degradation and inactivation in fibroblasts. Point mutations or small deletions of Y708 within the kinase insert region of the mutant D802V receptor partly inhibited receptor degradation. The more stable D802V receptor derivatives were able to transform both FDC-P1 cells and Rat-2 fibroblasts, so establishing that the cell specific effect of the c-fmsD802V activating loop mutation is attributable to receptor degradation which accompanies kinase activation and prevents the transformation of Rat-2 but not of FDC-P1 cells.
