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

Elevated levels of the calcium-binding regulatory protein, S100A4, have been shown to be causative of a metastatic phenotype in models of cancer metastasis and to be associated with reduced patient survival in breast cancer patients. Recombinant S100A4 protein interacts in vitro in a calcium-dependent manner with the heavy chain of non-muscle myosin isoform A at a protein kinase C phosphorylation site. At present, the mechanism of metastasis induction by S100A4 in vivo is almost completely unknown. The binding of S100A4 to a C-terminal recombinant fragment of non-muscle myosin heavy chain in living HeLa cells has now been shown using confocal microscopy, fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy and time-correlated single-photon counting. The association between S100A4 and non-muscle myosin heavy chain was studied by determining fluorescence resonance energy transfer-derived changes in the fluorescence lifetime of enhanced cyan fluorescent protein fused to S100A4 in the presence of a recombinant fragment of the C-terminal region of non-muscle myosin heavy chain (rNMMHCIIA) fused to enhanced yellow fluorescent protein. There was no interaction between the non-muscle myosin heavy chain fragment and a calcium-binding-deficient mutant of S100A4 protein which has been shown to be defective in the induction of metastasis in model systems in vivo. The results demonstrate, for the first time, not only direct interaction between S100A4 and a target rNMMHCIIA in live mammalian cells, but also that the interaction between S100A4 and the non-muscle myosin heavy chain in vivo could contribute to the mechanism of metastasis induction by a high level of S100A4 protein.
