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

Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a key proapoptotic factor in fibrotic tissue diseases. However, the mechanism of Ang-II-induced cell death in endothelial cells has not been previously elucidated. Using the neutral comet assay and specific receptor antagonists and agonists, we found that Ang-II-mediated apoptosis in primary pulmonary endothelial cells required the AT2 receptor. Ang II caused cytochrome c release from the mitochondria concurrent with caspase-3 activation and DNA fragmentation, and apoptosis was suppressed by an inhibitor of Bax-protein channel formation, implicating mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis. There was no evidence that the extrinsic apoptotic pathway was involved, because caspase-9, but not caspase-8, was activated by Ang-II treatment. Apoptosis required phosphoprotein phosphatase activation, and inhibition of the SHP-2 phosphatase (encoded by Ptpn11) blocked cell death. Reduced levels of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2-family members can initiate intrinsic apoptosis, and we found that Ang-II treatment lowered cytosolic Bcl-x(L) protein levels. Because the protein nucleolin has been demonstrated to bind Bcl-x(L) mRNA and prevent its degradation, we investigated the role of nucleolin in Ang-II-induced loss of Bcl-x(L). RNA-immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that Ang II reduced the binding of nucleolin to Bcl-x(L) mRNA in an AU-rich region implicated in instability of Bcl-x(L) mRNA. Inhibition of SHP-2 prevented Ang-II-induced degradation of Bcl-x(L) mRNA. Taken together, our findings suggest that nucleolin is a primary target of Ang-II signaling, and that Ang-II-activated SHP-2 inhibits nucleolin binding to Bcl-x(L) mRNA, thus affecting the equilibrium between pro- and anti-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family.
