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. Profiles of G protein activation have been assessed using a [35S]-GTPgammaS binding/immunoprecipitation strategy in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing either M1, M2, M3 or M4 muscarinic acetylcholine (mACh) receptor subtypes, where expression levels of M1 and M3, or M2 and M4 receptors were approximately equal. 2. Maximal [35S]-GTPgammaS binding to G(q/11)alpha stimulated by M1/M3 receptors, or G(i1-3)alpha stimulated by M2/M4 receptors occurred within approximately 2 min of agonist addition. The increases in G(q/11)alpha-[35S]-GTPgammaS binding after M1 and M3 receptor stimulation differed substantially, with M1 receptors causing a 2-3 fold greater increase in [35S]-GTPgammaS binding and requiring 5 fold lower concentrations of methacholine to stimulate a half-maximal response. 3. Comparison of M2 and M4 receptor-mediated G(i1-3)alpha-[35S]-GTPgammaS binding also revealed differences, with M2 receptors causing a greater increase in G(i1-3)alpha activation and requiring 10 fold lower concentrations of methacholine to stimulate a half-maximal response. 4. Comparison of methacholine- and pilocarpine-mediated effects revealed that the latter partial agonist is more effective in activating G(i3)alpha compared to G(i1/2)alpha for both M2 and M4 receptors. More marked agonist/partial agonist differences were observed with respect to M1/M3-mediated stimulations of G(q/11)alpha- and G(i1-3)alpha-[35S]-GTPgammaS binding. Whereas coupling to these Galpha subclasses decreased proportionately for M1 receptor stimulation by these agonists, pilocarpine possesses a greater intrinsic activity at M3 receptors for G(i)alpha versus G(q/11)alpha activation. 5. These data demonstrate that mACh receptor subtype and the nature of the agonist used govern the repertoire of G proteins activated. They also provide insights into how the diversity of coupling can be pharmacologically exploited, and provide a basis for a better understanding of how multiple receptor subtypes can be differentially regulated.
