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

Protein kinase C (PKC) plays critical roles in neuronal activity and is widely expressed in striatal neurons. However, it is not clear how PKC activation regulates the excitability of striatal cholinergic interneurons. In the present study, we found that PKC activation significantly inhibited A-type potassium current (I(A)), but had no effect on delayed rectifier potassium currents. Consistently, application of PKC activator caused an increase of firing in response to depolarizing currents in cholinergic interneurons, which was persistent in the presence of both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission blockers. These excitatory effects of PKC could be partially mimicked and occluded by blockade of I(A) with potassium channel blocker 4-aminopyridine. In addition, immunostaining demonstrated that PKCalpha, but not PKCgamma and PKCepsilon, was expressed in cholinergic interneurons. Furthermore, activation of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) led to an inhibition of I(A) through a PKC-dependent pathway. These data indicate that activation of PKC, most likely PKCalpha, increases the neuronal excitability of striatal cholinergic interneurons by down-regulating I(A). Group I mGluR-mediated I(A) inhibition might be important for the glutamatergic regulation of cholinergic tone in the neostriatum.
