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

Intestinal mucosal restitution occurs as a consequence of epithelial cell migration and reseals superficial wounds after injury. This rapid reepithelialization is mediated in part by a phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1)-induced Ca(2+) signaling, but the exact mechanism underlying such signaling and its regulation remains elusive. The small GTP-binding protein Rac1 functions as a pivotal regulator of several signaling networks and plays an important role in regulating cell motility. The current study tests the hypothesis that Rac1 modulates intestinal epithelial cell migration after wounding by altering PLC-gamma1-induced Ca(2+) signaling. Inhibition of Rac1 activity by treatment with its inhibitor NSC-23766 or Rac1 silencing with small interfering RNA decreased store depletion-induced Ca(2+) influx and suppressed cell migration during restitution, whereas ectopic overexpression of Rac1 increased Ca(2+) influx and promoted cell migration. Rac1 physically interacted with PLC-gamma1 and formed Rac1/PLC-gamma1 complex in intestinal epithelial cells. PLC-gamma1 silencing in cells overexpressing Rac1 prevented stimulation of store depletion-induced Ca(2+) influx and cell migration after wounding. Polyamine depletion inhibited expression of both Rac1 and PLC-gamma1, decreased Rac1/PLC-gamma1 complex levels, reduced Ca(2+) influx, and repressed cell migration. Overexpression of Rac1 alone failed to rescue Ca(2+) influx after store depletion and cell migration in polyamine-deficient cells, because it did not alter PLC-gamma1 levels. These results indicate that Rac1 promotes intestinal epithelial cell migration after wounding by increasing Ca(2+) influx as a result of its interaction with PLC-gamma1.
