Effects of receptor density on Nociceptin/OrphaninFQ peptide receptor desensitisation: studies using the ecdysone inducible expression system.
Article in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Pretreatment of the G-protein coupled nociceptin receptor (NOP) with nociceptin/orphaninFQ (N/OFQ) produces desensitisation. The influences of receptor expression and genomic effects are largely unknown. We have used an ecdysone-inducible NOP expression system in a CHO line (CHO INDhNOP) to examine the effects of N/OFQ pretreatment upon receptor density, GTPgamma[35S] binding, cAMP formation and NOP-mRNA. CHO(INDhNOP) induced with 5 and 10 microM PonasteroneA (PonA) for 20 h produced NOP densities (Bmax) of 194 and 473 fmol. mg(-1) protein, respectively. This was accompanied by decreased NOP mRNA. The lower Bmax is typical of the central nervous system. Pretreatment with 1 microM N/OFQ significantly (p < 0.05) reduced Bmax at 5 and 10 microM PonA to 100 and 196 fmol. mg(-1) protein, respectively. There was no change in binding affinity. Along with the reduction in Bmax), potency and efficacy for N/OFQ-stimulated GTPgamma[35S] binding were also reduced (5 microM PonA: pEC50-control = 8.55 +/- 0.06, pretreated = 7.88 +/- 0.07; Emax-control = 3.52 +/- 0.43, pretreated = 2.48 +/- 0.10; 10 microM PonA: pEC50-control = 8.41 +/- 0.18, pretreated = 7.76 +/- 0.03; Emax-control = 5.07 +/- 0.17, pretreated = 3.38 +/- 0.19). For inhibition of cAMP formation, there was a reduction in potency (5 microM PonA: pEC50-control = 9.78 +/- 0.08, pretreated = 8.92 +/- 0.13; 10 microM PonA: pEC50-control = 9.99 +/- 0.07, pretreated = 9.04 +/- 0.14), but there was no reduction in efficacy. In addition, there were 39 and 31% reductions in NOP mRNA at 5 and 10 microM PonA, respectively, but these measurements were made following concurrent N/OFQ challenge and PonA induction. In CHO INDhNOP, we have shown a reduction in cell surface receptor numbers and a reduction in functional coupling after N/OFQ pretreatment. This was observed at pseudo-physiological and supraphysiological receptor densities. Moreover, we also report a reduction in NOP mRNA, but further studies are needed which include 'pulsing' PonA and desensitizing following wash-out.
