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

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) signaling is critical for the innate immune response to gram-negative bacteria. Here, evidence is presented for LPS stimulation of sphingosine kinase (SPK) in the RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cell line and rat primary hepatic macrophages (HMs). LPS treatment of RAW 264.7 cells resulted in a time- and dose-dependent activation of SPK and membrane translocation of SPK1. Further, LPS-induced SPK activation was blocked by SPK1-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA). Overexpression of Toll-like receptor 4 and MD2, the receptor and coreceptor of LPS, in HEK 293 cells activated SPK activity in the absence of LPS treatment. Inhibition of SPK by the pharmacological inhibitor N,N-dimethylsphingosine (DMS) or SPK1-specific siRNA blocked LPS stimulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and p38 but enhanced LPS-induced c-Jun N-terminal kinase activation. The SPK inhibitor DMS and dominant-negative SPK1 also blocked LPS activation of Elk-1 and NF-kappaB reporters in RAW 264.7 cells. Inhibition of SPK sensitized RAW 264.7 cells and HMs to LPS-induced apoptosis. These data demonstrate the critical role of SPK1 in LPS signaling in macrophages and suggest that SPK1 is a potential therapeutic target to block hyperimmune responses induced by gram-negative bacteria.
