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

Vasoconstrictors activate phospholipase C (PLC), which hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)), leading to calcium mobilization, protein kinase C activation, and contraction. Our aim was to investigate whether PLC-delta(1), a PLC isoform implicated in alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor signaling and the pathogenesis of hypertension, is involved in noradrenaline (NA) or endothelin (ET-1)-induced PIP(2) hydrolysis and contraction. Rat mesenteric small arteries were studied. Contractility was measured by pressure myography, phospholipids or inositol phosphates were measured by radiolabeling with (33)Pi or myo-[(3)H]inositol, and caveolae/rafts were prepared by discontinuous sucrose density centrifugation. PLC-delta(1) was localized by immunoblot analysis and neutralized by delivery of PLC-delta(1) antibody. The PLC inhibitor U73122, but not the negative control U-73342, markedly inhibited NA and ET-1 contraction but had no effect on potassium or phorbol ester contraction, implicating PLC activity in receptor-mediated smooth muscle contraction. PLC-delta(1) was present in caveolae/rafts, and NA, but not ET-1, stimulated a rapid twofold increase in PLC-delta(1) levels in these domains. PLC-delta(1) is calcium dependent, and removal of extracellular calcium prevented its association with caveolae/rafts in response to NA, concomitantly reducing NA-induced [(33)P]PIP(2) hydrolysis and [(3)H]inositol phosphate formation but with no effect on ET-1-induced [(33)P]PIP(2) hydrolysis. Neutralization of PLC-delta(1) by PLC-delta(1) antibody prevented its caveolae/raft association and attenuated the sustained contractile response to NA compared with control antibodies. In contrast, ET-1-induced contraction was not affected by PLC-delta(1) antibody. These results indicate the novel and selective role of caveolae/raft localized PLC-delta(1) in NA-induced PIP(2) hydrolysis and sustained contraction in intact vascular tissue.
