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

RET is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) with roles in cell growth, differentiation and survival. Ligand-induced activation of RET results in stimulation of multiple signal transduction pathways, including the MAP kinase/Erk and PI3 kinase/Akt pathways. However, the mechanisms governing receptor internalization and signal down- regulation have not been explored. As other RTKs are internalized through the clathrin-coated pit pathway in a ligand-dependant manner, we have investigated whether RET is internalized through a similar process. Using a highly sensitive fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based assay, we have shown that RET is internalized from the plasma membrane in a ligand-dependant manner that requires RET kinase activity as well as the GTPase activity of the clathrin-coated vesicle scission protein dynamin 2. Further, we have demonstrated that RET colocalizes with Rab5a, a marker of clathrin-coated vesicles and early endosomes, after internalization. Finally, we demonstrated that RET internalization is required for complete activation of Erk1/2, but not for activation of Akt signaling. Our data suggest that ligand-induced internalization of RET not only plays an overall role in downregulation and termination of signaling, but also functions to traffic RET to subcellular locations where it can fully activate certain downstream signaling pathways.
