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

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods were employed to study the interaction of the cytokine Interleukin-2 (IL-2) with the alpha-subunit of its receptor (IL-2Ralpha), and to help understand the behavior of small molecule inhibitors of this interaction. Heteronuclear (1)H-(15)N HSQC experiments were used to identify the interaction surface of (15)N-enriched Interleukin-2 ((15)N-IL-2) in complex with human IL-2Ralpha. In these experiments, chemical shift and line width changes in the heteronuclear single-quantum coherence (HSQC) spectra upon binding of (15)N-IL-2 enabled classification of NH atoms as either near to, or far from, the IL-2Ralpha interaction surface. These data were complemented by hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange measurements, which illustrated enhanced protection of slowly-exchanging IL-2 NH protons near the site of interaction with IL-2Ralpha. The interaction surface defined by NMR compared well with the IL-2Ralpha binding site identified previously using mutagenesis of human and murine IL-2. Two low molecular weight inhibitors of the IL-2/IL-2Ralpha interaction were studied: one (a cyclic peptide derivative) was found to mimic a part of the cytokine and bind to IL-2Ralpha; the other (an acylphenylalanine derivative) was found to bind to IL-2. For the interaction between IL-2 and the acylphenylalanine, chemical shift perturbations of (15)N and (15)NH backbone resonances were tracked as a function of ligand concentration. The perturbation pattern observed for this complex revealed that the acylphenylalanine is a competitive inhibitor-it binds to the same site on IL-2 that interacts with IL-2Ralpha.
