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

The central role of the multifunctional protein nephrin within the macromolecular complex forming the glomerular slit diaphragm is well established, but the mechanisms linking the slit diaphragm to the cytoskeleton and to the signaling pathways involved in maintaining the integrity of the glomerular filter remain incompletely understood. Here, we report that nephrin interacts with the bicarbonate/chloride transporter kidney anion exchanger 1 (kAE1), detected by yeast two-hybrid assay and confirmed by immunoprecipitation and co-localization studies. We confirmed low-level glomerular expression of kAE1 in human and mouse kidneys by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence microscopy. We observed less kAE1 in human glomeruli homozygous for the NPHS1(FinMaj) nephrin mutation, whereas kAE1 expression remained unchanged in the collecting duct. We could not detect endogenous kAE1 expression in NPHS1(FinMaj) podocytes in primary culture, but heterologous re-introduction of wild-type nephrin into these podocytes rescued kAE1 expression. In kidneys of Ae1(-/-) mice, nephrin abundance was normal but its distribution was altered along with the reported kAE1-binding protein integrin-linked kinase (ILK). Ae1(-/-) mice had increased albuminuria with glomerular enlargement, mesangial expansion, mesangiosclerosis, and expansion of the glomerular basement membrane. Glomeruli with ILK-deficient podocytes also demonstrated altered AE1 and nephrin expression, further supporting the functional interdependence of these proteins. These data suggest that the podocyte protein kAE1 interacts with nephrin and ILK to maintain the structure and function of the glomerular basement membrane.
