Mechanisms of Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation by PKC in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle in the rat.
Article in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Sodium transport correlates with varying Na+-K+-ATPase activity rates along the nephron. Whether differences in Na+-K+-ATPase regulation by protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation are also present has not been tested. We measured the degree of Na+-K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit phosphorylation by the binding of McK-1 antibody to dephosphorylated Ser-23 and Na+-K+-ATPase activity in medullary thick ascending limb of Henle (mTAL) and proximal tubules (PCT). The degree of Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation at Ser-23 was lower in mTAL than in PCT (DU 13.43+/-1.99 versus 2.3+/-0.20, respectively, P<0.01) while Na+-K+-ATPase activity was higher in mTAL (3,402+/-83 vs 711+/-158 pmol/mm tubule per hour in PCT, P<0.01). PKC inhibitor RO-318220 10(-6) M decreased phosphorylation in PCT to 125+/-10% ( P<0.05). In mTAL, RO-318220 did not modify the phosphorylation degree or the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase. Both calcineurin inhibitor FK-506 10(-6) M and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) 10(-6) M increased the degree of Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation ( P<0.05) and inhibited Na+-K+-ATPase activity to 657+/-152 and 1,448+/-347 pmol/mm tubule per hour, respectively, in mTAL ( P<0.01). Increase in [Na+]i to 30, 50 and 70 mM resulted in no changes in Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation degree or activity in mTAL. Conversely, in PCT increments in [Na+]i were paralleled by decreased phosphorylation (from 120+/-7 to 160+/-15% of controls, P<0.05) and increased Na+-K+-ATPase activity (from 850+/-139 to 1,874+/-203 pmol/mm tubule per hour, P<0.01). Dopamine (DA) 10(-6) M decreased both Na+-K+-ATPase dephosphorylation to 41.85+/-9.58% ( P<0.05) and Na+-K+-ATPase activity to 2,405+/-176 pmol/mm tubule per hour in mTAL ( P<0.01). RO-318220 reversed DA effects. Data suggest that regulation of the degree of Na+-K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit phosphorylation at Ser-23 and enzyme activity have different mechanisms in mTAL than in PCT, and may help us to understand the physiological heterogeneity of both segments.
