Development of an AT2-deficient proximal tubule cell line for transport studies.
Article in In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Animal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Angiotensin II is a major regulatory peptide for proximal tubule Na(+) reabsorption acting through two distinct receptor subtypes: AT(1) and AT(2). Physiological or pathological roles of AT(2) have been difficult to unravel because angiotensin II can affect Na(+) transport either directly via AT(2) on luminal or peritubular plasma membranes of proximal tubule cells or indirectly via the renal vasculature. Furthermore, separate systemic and intratubular renin-angiotensin systems impart considerable complexity to angiotensin's regulation. A transport-competent, proximal tubule cell model that lacks AT(2) is a potentially useful tool to assess cellular angiotensin II regulation. To this end, AT(2)-receptor-deficient mice were bred with an Immortomouse, which harbors the thermolabile immortalization gene SV40 large-T antigen (Tag), and AT(2)-receptor-deficient [AT(2) (-/-)], Tag heterozygous [Tag (+/-)] F(2) offspring were selected for cell line generation. S1 proximal tubule segments were microdissected, and epithelial cell outgrowth was expanded in culture. Cells that formed confluent, electrically resistive monolayers were selected for cryopreservation, and one isolate was extensively characterized for conductance (2 mS/cm(2)), short-circuit current (Isc; 0.2 microA/cm(2)), and proximal tubule-specific Na3(+) - succinate (DeltaIsc = 0.8 microA/cm(2) at 2 mM succinate) and Na3(+) - phosphate cotransport (DeltaIsc = 3 microA/cm(2) at 1 mM phosphate). Light microscopy showed a uniform, cobblestone-shaped monolayer with prominent cilia and brush borders. AT(2) receptor functionality, as demonstrated by angiotensin II inhibition of ANF-stimulated cGMP synthesis, was absent in AT(2)-deficient cells but prominent in wild-type cells. This transport competent cell line in conjunction with corresponding wild type and AT(1)-deficient lines should help explain angiotensin II signaling relevant to Na(+) transport.
