Cathepsin L increased level upon Ras mutants expression: the role of p38 and p44/42 MAPK signaling pathways.

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.
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
The involvement of Ras and three major Ras effectors, Raf, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and Ral guanine nucleotide exchange factor in the regulation of lysosomal proteases cathepsin L and B in human fibroblasts was compared. We found that cathepsin L cell content was increased by active Ras overexpression through Raf- and PI3K-mediated signaling pathways, while cathepsin B processing was altered by active Ras overexpression. Cathepsin L increased level following active Ras overexpression correlates with an increase of p38 MAPK activation and content and with an increase of p44/42 MAPK activation, so we investigated the role of these signaling pathways using pharmacological inhibitors. Unexpectedly, the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 produced an increase of cathepsin L content, while the p44/42 MAPK signaling cascade inhibitor U0126 produced a remarkable shift of cathepsin L processing in favor of procathepsin L. In both cases, cathepsin B level and processing were not affected. The analysis of CTSL1 gene transcript demonstrated that cathepsin L protein and transcript correlate both in fibroblasts expressing Ras mutants and in pharmacologically treated cells, thus indicating a transcriptional up-regulation.
