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

Understanding how neuromodulators regulate behavior requires investigating their effects on functional neural systems, but also their underlying cellular mechanisms. Utilizing extensively characterized lamprey motor circuits, and the unique access to reticulospinal presynaptic terminals in the intact spinal cord that initiate these behaviors, we investigated effects of presynaptic G-protein-coupled receptors on locomotion from the systems level, to the molecular control of vesicle fusion. 5-HT inhibits neurotransmitter release via a Gbetagamma interaction with the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex that promotes kiss-and-run vesicle fusion. In the lamprey spinal cord, we demonstrate that, although presynaptic 5-HT receptors inhibit evoked neurotransmitter release from reticulospinal command neurons, their activation does not abolish locomotion but rather modulates locomotor rhythms. Liberation of presynaptic Gbetagamma causes substantial inhibition of AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic responses but leaves NMDA receptor-mediated components of neurotransmission mostly intact. Because Gbetagamma binding to the SNARE complex is displaced by Ca(2+)-synaptotagmin binding, 5-HT-mediated inhibition displays Ca(2+) sensitivity. We show that, as Ca(2+) accumulates presynaptically during physiological bouts of activity, 5-HT/Gbetagamma-mediated presynaptic inhibition is relieved, leading to a frequency-dependent increase in synaptic concentrations of glutamate. This frequency-dependent phenomenon mirrors a shift in the vesicle fusion mode and a recovery of AMPA receptor-mediated EPSCs from inhibition without a modification of NMDA receptor EPSCs. We conclude that activation of presynaptic 5-HT G-protein-coupled receptors state-dependently alters vesicle fusion properties to shift the weight of NMDA versus AMPA receptor-mediated responses at excitatory synapses. We have therefore identified a novel mechanism in which modification of vesicle fusion modes may profoundly alter locomotor behavior.
