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

Activation of angiotensin II type 2 receptors (AT(2)R) causes the release of kinins, which have beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system. However, it is not clear how AT(2)R interact with the kallikrein-kinin system to generate kinins. Prolylcarboxypeptidase is an endothelial membrane-bound plasma prekallikrein activator that converts plasma prekallikrein to kallikrein, leading to generation of bradykinin from high-molecular-weight kininogen. We hypothesized that AT(2)R-induced bradykinin release is at least in part mediated by activation of prolylcarboxypeptidase. Cultures of mouse coronary artery endothelial cells were transfected with an adenoviral vector containing the AT(2)R gene (Ad-AT(2)R) or green fluorescent protein only (Ad-GFP) as control. We found that overexpression of AT(2)R increased prolylcarboxypeptidase mRNA by 1.7-fold and protein 2.5-fold compared with Ad-GFP controls. AT(2)R overexpression had no effect on angiotensin II type 1 receptor mRNA. Bradykinin release was increased 2.2-fold in AT(2)R-transfected cells. Activation of AT(2)R by CGP42112A, a specific AT(2)R agonist, increased bradykinin further in AT(2)R-transfected cells. These effects were diminished or abolished by AT(2)R blockade or a plasma kallikrein inhibitor. Furthermore, blocking prolylcarboxypeptidase with a small interfering RNA partially but significantly reduced bradykinin release by transfected AT(2)R cells either at the basal condition or when stimulated by the AT(2)R agonist CGP42112A. These findings suggest that overexpression of AT(2)R in mouse coronary artery endothelial cells increases expression of prolylcarboxypeptidase, which may contribute to kinin release.
