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

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae phospholipase C Plc1 is involved in cytosolic transient glucose-induced calcium increase, which also requires the Gpr1/Gpa2 receptor/G protein complex and glucose hexokinases. Differing from mammalian cells, this increase in cytosolic calcium concentration is mainly due to an influx from the external medium. No inositol triphosphate receptor homologue has been identified in the S. cerevisiae genome; and, therefore, the transduction mechanism from Plc1 activation to calcium flux generation still has to be identified. Inositol triphosphate (IP(3)) in yeast is rapidly transformed into IP(4) and IP(5) by a dual kinase, Arg82. Then another kinase, Ipk1, phosphorylates the IP(5) into IP(6). In mutant cells that do not express either of these kinases, the glucose-induced calcium signal was not only detectable but was even wider than in the wild-type strain. IP(3) accumulation upon glucose addition was completely absent in the plc1Delta strain and was amplified both by deletion of either ARG82 or IPK1 genes and by overexpression of PLC1. These results taken together suggest that Plc1p activation by glucose, leading to cleavage of PIP(2) and generation of IP(3), seems to be sufficient for raising the calcium level in the cytosol. This is the first indication for a physiological role of IP(3) signalling in S. cerevisiae. Many aspects about the signal transduction mechanism and the final effectors require further study.
