Regulated autocrine growth of CHO cells.
Article in Cytotechnology, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The goal of this work was to engineer a CHO cell line capable ofautocrine growth in a fully defined protein-free medium. Thiswas accomplished by stable integration of the genes encodinginsulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and transferrin into thegenome of a CHO-K1 cell line. Thelac operator/repressorsystem was used to regulate the expression of the IGF-I gene with thelac operator sequence being placed upstream ofthe coding sequence for IGF-I. The expression of thelacrepressor protein was driven by a modified metallothioneinpromoter allowing repressor expression to be regulated by theculture medium. The cell line calledSuper CHO(r) (r for regulated) was able to grow in protein-free medium in an autocrine fashion with a doubling time of 20-24 hr,either attached to microcarriers or as aggregate suspensioncultures. Upon addition of metal to the culture medium, therepressor protein was produced and bound to the operatorsequences shutting down the expression of IGF-I and arrestingthe growth of the cells. Expression of the human growth hormone(hGH) gene and production of hGH was induced by the presence ofmetal ions. It was possible to release the cells from growtharrest in the presence of metal by the addition of isopropylbeta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), which prevented bindingof the repressor to its operator sequences. The ability to growCHO cells in fully defined protein-free medium and to be able toregulate their growth rate offers a number of advantages for theuse of these cells as hosts for the production of recombinantDNA derived proteins.
