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

Ligand-gated ion channels underlie and play important roles in synaptic transmission, and it is generally accepted that the ion channel pores have a rigid structure that enables strict regulation of ion permeation. One exception is the P2X ATP-gated channel. After application of ATP, the ion selectivity of the P2X2 channel time-dependently changes, i.e. permeability to large cations gradually increases, and there is significant cell-to-cell variation in the intensity of inward rectification. Here we show P2X2 channel properties are correlated with the expression level: increasing P2X2 expression level in oocytes increases permeability to large cations, decreases inward rectification and increases ligand sensitivity. We also observed that the inward rectification changed in a dose-dependent manner, i.e. when low concentration of ATP was applied to an oocyte with a high expression level, the intensity of inward rectification of the evoked current was weak. Taken together, these results show that the pore properties of P2X2 channel are not static but change dynamically depending on the open channel density. Furthermore, we identified by mutagenesis study that Ile328 located at the outer mouth of the pore is critical for the density-dependent changes of P2X2. Our findings suggest synaptic transmission can be modulated by the local density-dependent changes of channel properties caused, for example, by the presence of clustering molecules.
