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

P2X receptors are ligand-gated cation channels that transition from closed to open states upon binding ATP. The crystal structure of the closed zebrafish P2X4.1 receptor directly reveals that the ion-conducting pathway is formed by three transmembrane domain 2 (TM2) alpha-helices, each being provided by the three subunits of the trimer. However, the transitions in TM2 that accompany channel opening are incompletely understood and remain unresolved. In this study, we quantified gated access to Cd(2+) at substituted cysteines in TM2 of P2X2 receptors in the open and closed states. Our data for the closed state are consistent with the zebrafish P2X4.1 structure, with isoleucines and threonines (Ile-332 and Thr-336) positioned one helical turn apart lining the channel wall on approach to the gate. Our data for the open state reveal gated access to deeper parts of the pore (Thr-339, Val-343, Asp-349, and Leu-353), suggesting the closed channel gate is between Thr-336 and Thr-339. We also found unexpected interactions between native Cys-348 and D349C that result in tight Cd(2+) binding deep within the intracellular vestibule in the open state. Interpreted with a P2X2 receptor structural model of the closed state, our data suggest that the channel gate opens near Thr-336/Thr-339 and is accompanied by movement of the pore-lining regions, which narrow toward the cytosolic end of TM2 in the open state. Such transitions would relieve the barrier to ion flow and render the intracellular vestibule less splayed during channel opening in the presence of ATP.
