Asymmetric localization of Notch2 on the microvillous surface in choroid plexus epithelial cells.

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
Notch family molecules are transmembrane receptors that play various roles in contact-dependent cell-cell interactions in a wide range of organs. In the brain, Notch2, but not the other members of Notch, is expressed in the choroid plexus at an exceptionally high level. We immunohistochemically examined the cellular and subcellular localization of Notch2 protein in the choroid plexus using confocal and electron microscopy. Unexpectedly, Notch2 was asymmetrically localized on the microvillous surface of epithelial cells in the choroid plexus of both postnatal and adult rats. This localization pattern of Notch2 suggests its novel and unknown role independent of contact with adjacent cells in the choroid plexus. In organotypic cultures of the choroid plexus, the addition of anti-Notch2 antibody resulted in deformation of microvilli in epithelial cells, which suggests a role of Notch2 in the maintenance of the microvillous structure in choroid plexus epithelial cells.
