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

Reducing osmolarity by 35% increased (3)H-taurine efflux from Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts from 0.5% to a peak of 5.7%. The presence of ATP (10-100 microM; EC(50) 1.5 microM) increased taurine efflux up to 10%, and decreased the set point for hyposmotically stimulated taurine release (HTR). ATP potentiation was mimicked by UTP, reduced by addition of suramin and pyridoxal phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid (PPADS) and unaffected by ADP, beta,gamma-methylene-ATP (beta,gamma-ATP) or 2-methylthio-ATP (Me-ATP), suggesting its mediation by purinergic P2Y(2) and P2Y(4) metabotropic receptors. Under isosmotic conditions ATP increased the cytosolic [Ca(2+)] ([Ca(2+)](i)) markedly, but did not increase taurine release. HTR was independent of external Ca(2+) but was reduced (by 56-59%) by BAPTA-AM, thapsigargin-induced depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores, or phospholipase C (PLC) inhibition. Blockade of calmodulin (CaM) or calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII) reduced HTR by 54% and 76%, respectively. The ATP-mediated potentiation was prevented fully by all these treatments. HTR was reduced by 30-50% by blockers of protein tyrosine kinases (AG18), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) (wortmannin), p21rho (toxin B), p21rho-kinase (Y27632) and the stress-activated kinase p38 (PD169316). ATP-mediated potentiation was reduced similarly by these blockers. Simultaneous inhibition of PI3K and CaMKII abolished HTR. Altogether, these results suggest a modulatory effect of ATP, probably exerted by a potentiation of the Ca(2+)-dependent fraction of HTR. This fraction has as signalling elements a PLC-dependent [Ca(2+)](i) increase, resulting from Ca(2+) released from thapsigargin-sensitive internal stores, followed by activation of CaM/CaMKII reactions. The Ca(2+)/ATP effect operates only when the Ca(2+)-independent, tyrosine kinase-mediated pathway is already activated. Suggested elements of cross-talk between the two pathways are PLC, PI3K and CaMKII.
