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

Adhesions of cells to extracellular matrix and adjacent cells are mediated by integrins and VE-cadherin, respectively. Although these adhesion processes play crucial roles in vascular cell migration and angiogenesis, it remains unclear as to how they are coordinated to regulate cellular functions. We report here that integrin engagement by treating bovine endothelial aortic cell monolayers with beads coated with fibronectin (Fn) led to disruption of the VE-cadherin-containing adherens junctions. This disruption was accompanied by increases of tyrosine phosphorylation of beta-catenin, gamma-catenin, and p120ctn, as well as the dissociation of alpha-catenin and gamma-catenin from VE-cadherin. We applied a membrane-targeted Src reporter based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer technique to visualize the dynamic Src activation at subcellular levels in live cells. The integrin engagement induced by Fn-coated beads caused the activation of Src around the beads and at adherens junctions, which are subsequently disrupted. The inhibition of Src with PP1 blocked the effects of integrin engagement on adherens junctions. Although Ras can also modulate adherens junctions, the resulting patterns of phosphorylation and association of junction proteins were distinct from those induced by integrin engagement. The inhibition of Ras by RasN17 did not rescue the disruption of adherens junctions induced by integrin engagement or by Src activation. Integrin engagement by Fn-coated beads also induced a significant alteration of cortical actin filaments at adherens junctions. The results indicate that integrin engagement disrupts VE-cadherin-containing adherens junctions via the activation of Src, but not Ras, possibly as a result of modulation of the actin network.
