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

In addition to protein kinase A (PKA), cAMP regulates the activity of cAMP-gated channels and Rap1-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factors. We tested the hypothesis that the targets of cAMP might also include regulators of the Ras protooncogene. In rat thyroid cells, thyrotropin (TSH) stimulates proliferation through a cAMP-mediated pathway that requires Ras activity. Interference with Ras impairs DNA synthesis stimulated by TSH as well as cAMP elevating agents and analogs, demonstrating that the requirement for Ras lies down-stream of cAMP. Although cAMP stimulates proliferation, microinjection of the purified PKA catalytic subunit failed to do so, suggesting that factors in addition to PKA are required for cAMP-stimulated cell cycle progression. When added to thyroid cells expressing human Ha-Ras, TSH rapidly and markedly increased the proportion of GTP-bound Ras. Ras activity was increased within 1 min of TSH addition, maximal at 5-15 min, and declined to basal levels 30-60 min after hormone treatment. Cyclic AMP elevating agents elicited similar effects on Ras, indicating that TSH activates Ras through a cAMP-mediated pathway. Although cAMP-mediated, Ras activation by TSH and cAMP was independent of PKA activity. Moreover, cAMP-stimulated Ras activation was not impaired by tyrosine kinase inhibitors. These results indicate that cAMP activates targets in addition to PKA in thyroid cells, and that these targets may include regulators of Ras. The ability of cAMP elevating agents to activate Ras in addition to PKA may explain the inability of the PKA catalytic subunit to stimulate DNA synthesis in thyroid cells.
