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

The baculovirus expression vector system is considered to be a safe, powerful, but cell-lytic heterologous protein expression system in insect cells. We show here that there is a new baculovirus system for efficient gene transfer and expression using the popular and genetically well-understood Drosophila S2 cells. The recombinant baculovirus was constructed to carry an enhanced green fluorescent protein under the control of polyhedrin promoter as a fluorescent selection marker in the Sf21 cell line. Recombinant baculoviruses were then used to transduce S2 cells with target gene expression cassettes containing a Drosophila heat shock protein 70, an actin 5C, or a metallothionein promoter. Nearly 100% of the S2 cells showed evidence of gene expression after infection. The time course for the optimal protein expression peaked at 24 to 36 h postinfection, which is significantly earlier than a polyhedrin-driven protein expression in Sf21 cells. Importantly, S2 cells did not appear to be lysed after infection, and the protein expression levels are comparable to those of proteins under the control of polyhedrin promoter in several lepidopteran cell lines. Most surprisingly, S2 cells permit repetitive infections of multiple baculoviruses over time. These findings clearly suggest that this baculovirus-S2 system may effect the efficient gene transfer and expression system of the well-characterized Drosophila S2 cells.
