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

Precise targeting of neurotransmitter receptors to different neuronal compartments is a fundamental step for the establishment and function of synaptic circuitry. Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors, mGluR1 and mGluR5, control glutamatergic neurotransmission by acting both postsynaptically and presynaptically. Four alternatively spliced variants of the mGluR1 gene exist, which differ in their signaling properties and subcellular localization. The present study was undertaken to identify the molecular signals responsible for trafficking of these receptors to different neuronal compartments. Here we report that targeting of mGluR1 to dendrites and axons of transfected retina neurons is controlled by alternative splicing. We have identified in the tail of the receptor a tripeptide motif, which is necessary and sufficient to exclude the splice variant mGluR1b from distal dendrites and to drive it to the axon. This motif, which is present in all the mGluR1 receptors, is masked in mGluR1a by a dominant dendritic signal sequence harbored by the extended C-terminal tail of this splice variant. Furthermore, we show that the identified axonal and dendritic targeting signals are also necessary and sufficient to localize mGluR1b and mGluR1a to the apical and basolateral compartment of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, respectively, consistent with the existence of common trafficking components for polarized targeting in epithelial cells and neurons.
