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 study the membrane mobility of aquaporin water channels, clones of stably transfected LLC-PK1 cells were isolated with plasma membrane expression of GFP-AQP1 and GFP-AQP2, in which the green fluorescent protein (GFP) was fused upstream and in-frame to each aquaporin (AQP). The GFP fusion did not affect AQP tetrameric association or water transport function. GFP-AQP lateral mobility was measured by irreversibly bleaching a spot (diameter 0.8 microm) on the membrane with an Argon laser beam (488 nm) and following the fluorescence recovery into the bleached area resulting from GFP translational diffusion. In cells expressing GFP-AQP1, fluorescence recovered to >96% of its initial level with t(1/2) of 38 +/- 2 s (23 degrees C) and 21 +/- 1 s (37 degrees C), giving diffusion coefficients (D) of 5.3 and 9.3 x 10(-11) cm(2)/s. GFP-AQP1 diffusion was abolished by paraformaldehyde fixation, slowed >50-fold by the cholesterol-binding agent filipin, but not affected by cAMP agonists. In cells expressing GFP-AQP2, fluorescence recovered to >98% with D of 5.7 and 9.0 x 10(-11) cm(2)/s at 23 degrees C and 37 degrees C. In contrast to results for GFP-AQP1, the cAMP agonist forskolin slowed GFP-AQP2 mobility by up to tenfold. The cAMP slowing was blocked by actin filament disruption with cytochalasin D, by K(+)-depletion in combination with hypotonic shock, and by mutation of the protein kinase A phosphorylation consensus site (S256A) at the AQP2 C-terminus. These results indicate unregulated diffusion of AQP1 in membranes, but regulated AQP2 diffusion that was dependent on phosphorylation at serine 256, and an intact actin cytoskeleton and clathrin coated pit. The cAMP-induced immobilization of phosphorylated AQP2 provides evidence for AQP2-protein interactions that may be important for retention of AQP2 in specialized membrane domains for efficient membrane recycling.
