Inactivation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase by fumarate in diabetes: formation of S-(2-succinyl)cysteine, a novel chemical modification of protein and possible biomarker of mitochondrial stress.
Article in Diabetes, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 75 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectives(2-succinyl)cysteine (2SC) is formed by a Michael addition reaction of the Krebs cycle intermediate, fumarate, with cysteine residues in protein. We investigated the role of fumarate in chemical modification and inhibition of the sulfhydryl enzyme, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), in vitro and in tissues of diabetic rats. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsGAPDH was incubated with fumarate in PBS to assess effects of fumarate on enzyme activity in vitro. Sites of 2SC formation were determined by analysis of tryptic peptides by high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometry. 2SC and fumarate in gastrocnemius muscle of control and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were measured by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry and by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, respectively. GAPDH was isolated from muscle by immunoprecipitation, and sites of modification of GAPDH were determined by mass spectrometry analysis.
results2SC was found, both in vitro and in vivo, about equally at active-site Cys-149 and nucleophilic Cys-244. Inactivation of GAPDH by fumarate in vitro correlated with formation of 2SC. In diabetic compared with control rats, fumarate and 2SC concentration increased approximately fivefold, accompanied by an approximately 25% decrease in GAPDH specific activity. The fractional modification of GAPDH by 2SC was significantly increased in diabetic versus control animals, consistent with the decreased specific activity of GAPDH in muscle of diabetic animals.
conclusionsFumarate contributes to inactivation of GAPDH in diabetes. 2SC may be a useful biomarker of mitochondrial stress in diabetes. Modification of GAPDH and other enzymes and proteins by fumarate may contribute to the metabolic changes underlying the development of diabetes complications.
