Pharmacological characterization of endothelin receptors-mediated contraction in the mouse isolated proximal and distal colon.
Article in British journal of pharmacology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 study investigated the role of endothelin (ET) and the ET receptor subtypes ET(A) and ET(B) in mediating longitudinal contraction in the mouse proximal and distal colon. Cumulative concentration-response curves to a range of ET agonists (ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, (Ala(1,3,11,13)) ET and IRL 1620) were established by administering concentrations ranging from 0.01 nM to 0.3 microM. Concentration-response curves to ET-1, which exhibits a high affinity for both ET(A) and ET(B) receptor subtypes, were also established in the presence of the ET(A) antagonist BMS 182874 and the ET(B) antagonist IRL1038. The addition of the selective ET(A) receptor antagonist BMS 182874 caused a rightward shift of the concentration-response curve to ET-1 in both sections of the colon. The ET(B) receptor antagonist IRL1038 (0.3-1 microM) did not significantly effect the response to ET-1 in the proximal colon but caused a significant decrease in response towards higher concentrations ranges (>or=3 nM) in the distal colon. A comparison of the concentration-response curves to ET-1, ET-2 and ET-3 showed a rank order of potency ET-1>or=ET-2>>ET-3 in the proximal colon and ET-1>or=ET-2>or=ET-3 in the distal colon. The selective ET(B) receptor agonists, (Ala(1,3,11,13)) ET and IRL 1620 did not produce any response in the proximal sections of the colon but produced a smaller contraction in the distal segments. The data indicate that ET can contract the proximal tissues of the mouse colon predominantly via ET(A) receptors and in the distal tissues via ET(A) and ET(B) receptors.
