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

We investigated the assembly and activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-p185c-neu heterodimer by using a sequential immunoprecipitation methodology. Using this approach we detected heterodimers and also higher-ordered oligomeric complexes. Phosphorylated EGFR-p185c-neu heterodimeric forms were detected in the absence of EGF, but the species became highly phosphorylated after EGF stimulation. To evaluate heterodimer formation and additional transactivation by EGF, we investigated the roles of the four extracellular subdomains of p185c-neu and the EGFR. Subdomains I-IV of the EGFR dimerized with subdomains I-IV of p185c-neu, respectively, in a parallel manner. In addition, subdomains I-IV of the EGFR also associated with p185c-neu subdomains III, IV, I, and II, respectively. A lack of one of the p185c-neu cysteine-rich domains (subdomains II or IV) resulted in a loss of EGF-induced transactivation. These data suggest that two cysteine-rich domains play defining roles in ligand-dependent transactivation and that both of these cysteine-rich extracellular subdomains as well as non-cysteine-rich extracellular subdomains are involved in ligand-independent interactions with the EGFR. Our studies provide biochemical evidence of the role of the cysteine-rich domains of p185c-neu in assembly and transactivation of erbB complexes and also indicate that these subdomains might be useful clinical targets.
