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

1. The purpose of this work was to characterize the receptors involved in the action of nucleotides on the human prostate carcinoma cell lines LNCaP, PC-3 and DU145. 2. Northern blotting revealed the presence of P2Y(2), P2Y(6) and P2Y(11) messengers in the three cell lines. P2Y(1) mRNA was only observed in the DU145 cells. In both PC-3 and DU145 cells, ATP and UTP stimulated inositol phosphate accumulation in an equipotent, equiactive and non-additive way, suggesting the involvement of P2Y(2) receptors. ATP also increased cyclic AMP, but this effect is likely to result from degradation into adenosine and activation of A(2) receptor. A(2) receptor activation led to a synergistic enhancement of prostate-specific antigen secretion induced by vasoactive intestinal peptide. 3. RT - PCR experiments detected the expression of the P2X(4) and P2X(5) receptors in the DU145 cells and the P2X(4), P2X(5) and P2X(7) receptors in the PC-3 cells. The calcium influx induced by BzATP confirmed the functional expression of P2X receptors. 4. ATP inhibited the growth of PC-3 and DU145 cells. This effect was mimicked neither by UTP nor by adenosine, indicating that it does not result from phospholipase C or adenylyl cyclase activation. On the contrary, in PC-3 cells, BzATP reproduced the effect of ATP, which was associated to a moderate decrease of proliferation and an increase of apoptosis. In DU145 cells, ATP was more potent than BzATP and growth inhibition was mainly associated with necrosis. We suggest that P2X receptors might be involved in the inhibition by nucleotides of prostate carcinoma cell growth.
