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 P2X7 subtype holds a special position among P2X receptors because of its ability to act both as a classical, ligand-gated ion channel, and as a permeabilization pore that can induce cell death under prolonged activation by ATP. We have shown previously that, in rat retina, P2X7 receptors are located in the inner nuclear layer and ganglion cell layer (GCL). The present study was aimed at finding whether retinal P2X7 receptors can act as a mediator of cell permeabilization and, if so, at identifying the cellular target(s) of this effect. As an indicator of cell permeabilization, we used the fluorescent dye YO-PRO-1 (molecular weight, 375 Da), which enters cells only through large pores like those opened by prolonged or sustained stimulation of P2X(7) receptors and binds to DNA, providing a stable labeling of the activated cells. Different agonists for P2 receptors were tested for their ability to cause cell permeabilization in flat-mounted rat retinas. Among them, only high concentrations of ATP (500 microM) and BzATP (2',3'-O-(4-benzoyl-benzoyl)-ATP triethylammonium) (100 microM) were able to induce accumulation of YO-PRO-1 in the GCL and in the nerve fiber layer, suggesting that different cell types were responding to P2X7 stimulation. This effect was blocked by the P2 antagonists suramin and PPADS (pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid) and by the P2X7-selective inhibitor Brilliant Blue G. To identify the retinal cell types affected by ATP-induced permeabilization, we used in vivo labeling techniques. Our data clearly reveal that prolonged stimulation of P2X7 receptors elicits permeabilization exclusively in microglial cells but not in neurons of the inner retina.
