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

Our earlier work indicated that the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) genomic RNA (vRNA) is trafficked to the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) when heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 is depleted from cells. Also, Rab7-interacting lysosomal protein promoted dynein motor complex, late endosome and vRNA clustering at the MTOC suggesting that the dynein motor and late endosomes were involved in vRNA trafficking. To investigate the role of the dynein motor in vRNA trafficking, dynein motor function was disrupted by small interference RNA-mediated depletion of the dynein heavy chain or by p50/dynamitin overexpression. These treatments led to a marked relocalization of vRNA and viral structural protein Gag to the cell periphery with late endosomes and a severalfold increase in HIV-1 production. In contrast, rerouting vRNA to the MTOC reduced virus production. vRNA localization depended on Gag membrane association as shown using both myristoylation and Gag nucleocapsid domain proviral mutants. Furthermore, the cytoplasmic localization of vRNA and Gag was not attributable to intracellular or internalized endocytosed virus particles. Our results demonstrate that dynein motor function is important for regulating Gag and vRNA egress on endosomal membranes in the cytoplasm to directly impact on viral production.
