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

To define the unique contributions of the alpha subunit cytoplasmic tails of the alpha(1)beta(1) and alpha(2)beta(1) integrin to epithelial differentiation and branching morphogenesis, a variant NMuMG cell line lacking alpha(1)beta(1) and alpha(2)beta(1) integrin expression was stably transfected with the full-length alpha(2) integrin subunit cDNA (X2C2), chimeric cDNA consisting of the extracellular and transmembrane domains of the alpha(2) subunit and the cytoplasmic domain of the alpha(1) subunit (X2C1), or alpha(2) cDNA truncated after the GFFKR sequence (X2C0). The X2C2 and X2C1 transfectants effectively adhered, spread, and formed focal adhesion complexes on type I collagen matrices. The X2C0 transfectants were less adherent to low concentrations of type I collagen, spread less well, and formed poorly defined focal adhesion complexes in comparison to the X2C2 and X2C1 transfectants. The X2C2 and X2C1 transfectants but not the X2C0 transfectants proliferated on collagen substrates. Only the X2C2 transfectants developed elongate branches and tubules in three-dimensional collagen gels and migrated on type I collagen. These findings suggest a unique role for the alpha(2) integrin cytoplasmic domain in postligand binding events and cooperative interactions with growth factors that mediate epithelial differentiation and branching morphogenesis. Either intact alpha(1) or alpha(2) integrin subunit cytoplasmic domain can promote cell cycle progression.
