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

Rho GTPases are mainly known for their implication in cytoskeleton remodeling. They have also been recently shown to regulate various aspects of membrane trafficking. Here, we report the identification and the characterization of a novel Caenorhabditis elegans Cdc42-related protein, CRP-1, that shows atypical enzymatic characteristics in vitro. Expression in mouse fibroblasts revealed that, in contrast with CDC-42, CRP-1 was unable to reorganize the actin cytoskeleton and mainly localized to trans-Golgi network and recycling endosomes. This subcellular localization, as well as its expression profile restricted to a subset of epithelial-like cells in C. elegans, suggested a potential function for this protein in polarized membrane trafficking. Consistent with this hypothesis, alteration of CRP-1 expression affected the apical trafficking of CHE-14 in vulval and rectal epithelial cells and sphingolipids (C(6)-NBD-ceramide) uptake and/or trafficking in intestinal cells. However, it did not affect basolateral trafficking of myotactin in the pharynx and the targeting of IFB-2 and AJM-1, two cytosolic apical markers of intestine epithelial cells. Hence, our data demonstrate a function for CRP-1 in the regulation of membrane trafficking in a subset of cells with epithelial characteristics.
