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

The neuropeptide PACAP (pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide) and its receptors are widely expressed in the nervous system including the retina. PACAP has well-known neuroprotective effects in neuronal cultures in vitro and against different insults in vivo. Recently, we have shown that PACAP1-38 is neuroprotective against monosodium glutamate (MSG)-induced retinal degeneration. Studying the molecular mechanisms of this protection has revealed that PACAP1-38 stimulates anti-apoptotic mechanisms such as phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and inhibits pro-apoptotic signaling molecules such as JNK1/2, p38MAPK, caspase-3 and the translocation of mitochondrial cytochrome c and apoptosis inducing factor in glutamate-treated retinas in vivo. In the present study we investigated the effects of PACAP1-38 on a further signal transduction pathway possibly involved in the protective effect of intravitreal PACAP1-38 administration against apoptotic retinal degeneration induced by neonatal MSG treatment. The focus of the present study was the protein kinase A (PKA)-Bad-14-3-3 transduction pathway. In vivo MSG treatment led to a reduction in the levels of anti-apoptotic molecules (phospho-PKA phospho-Bad, Bcl-xL and 14-3-3 proteins) in the retina. Co-treatment with PACAP1-38 counteracted these effects: the level of phospho-PKA, phospho-Bad, Bcl-xL and 14-3-3 were increased. All effects of PACAP1-38 were inhibited by the PACAP antagonist PACAP6-38. In summary, our results show that PACAP1-38 activates the PKA-Bad-14-3-3 pathway which is inhibited by MSG treatment. Our results also provide new insights into the signaling mechanisms possibly involved in the PACAP-mediated anti-apoptotic effects.
