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

purposeTo evaluate the expression, localization, function, and regulation of multidrug resistance protein (MRP1) in rabbit conjunctival epithelial cells (RCEC). MATERIALS AND

methodsMRP1 gene expression in RCEC was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and MRP1 protein expression and its localization were determined by Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence using an anti-MRP1 monoclonal antibody, MRPr1. The effect of MRP1 on the transport and uptake of fluorescein was evaluated in RCEC grown on Transwell filters. Moreover, the effect of adenovirus type 5 (Ad5)-infected RCEC, and cytokines (Interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha)) on MRP1 expression and leukotriene C4 (LTC4) uptake were investigated.

resultsA 652 bp RT-PCR product from rabbit conjunctiva showed a 87% homology to human MRP1. Immunostaining with MRPr1 revealed a predominant basolateral localization of MRP1 in RCEC. Uptake of fluorescein, a MRP1 substrate, was increased (203-290%) in the presence of uricosuric drug probenecid at 100 microM, anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin at 10 microM and diclofenac, flurbiprofen, and ofloxacin at 1 mM, and by ATP depletion, but not influenced by the depletion of GSH, and the presence of antiviral cidofovir and anti-inflammatory drug cromolyn and prednisolone. Apical-to-basolateral facilitated transport of LTC4 was abolished in the presence of probenecid. Western blot analysis with MRPr1 revealed a distinct band at approximately 190 kDa for freshly isolated and cultured RCEC. Both Ad5 and cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-alpha) up-regulated MRP1 expression, thereby reducing LTC4 uptake.

conclusionsMRP1 appears to be primarily localized in the basolateral membrane of RCEC and function in the efflux of certain organic anions and inflammatory factors out of cells from the basolateral membrane. The upregulation in the expression of MRP1 by Ad5-infection and cytokines suggests a role of MRP1 in the transport of inflammatory factors during ocular inflammation.
