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

1. N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferases V (GnT-V/Mgat5) play a pivotal role in the processing of N-linked glycoproteins in the Golgi apparatus. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether the N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V is able to modify TrKA, the high-affinity tyrosine kinase-type receptor for NGF, and thereby to regulate the receptor function. 2. Plasmids of the pcDNA3/GnT-V and pcDNA3 were transfected into PC12 cells. Expression of GnT-V protein was detected by Western blot. TrKA protein was examined by immunoprecipitation. Endocytosis of TrKA was investigated by the method of receptor internalization. 3. We report here that over-expression GnT-V directly modifies TrKA protein, accompanied by marked enhancement of axon outgrowth in rat pheochromocytoma cells (PC12) elicited by a low dose of NGF that alone is insufficient to induce neuronal differentiation. Further study indicated that modification of TrKA glycoprotein could directly enhance NGF-activated autophosphorylation of immunoprecipitated TrKA in vitro. To further elucidate the mechanism, we study the different time point of endocytosis of TrKA receptor. The results show that TrKA of GnT-V gene-transfected PC12 Cells delayed their removal by constitutive endocytosis as compared to the mock cells, suggesting high expression of GnT-V may affect their receptor TrKA endocytosis. 4. These results strongly suggest that N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V functioning as a specific endogenous role of NGF receptor function, which appear to be due, at least in part, to the promotion of differentiation. This work is an important step toward intriguing innovative therapeutic strategies targeting glycosyltransferase.
