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

Appl1 (Adaptor protein containing pleckstrin homology [PH], phosphotyrosine binding [PTB], and Leucine zipper motifs) is an adaptor that participates in cell signaling by interacting with various signaling molecules including Akt, PI3-kinase (PI3K), Rab5, adiponectin receptor, and TrkA. By using RNA knockdown technology, Appl1 has been implicated in zebrafish development and murine glucose metabolism. To investigate the unambiguous role of Appl1 in vivo, we generated a knockout mouse in which exon1 of the Appl1 gene was disrupted using gene trap methodology. Homozygous Appl1 knockout mice with ubiquitous loss of Appl1 protein expression were viable, grossly normal, and born at expected Mendelian ratios. Moreover, activation of Akt and the downstream effecter Gsk3β was unaffected in vivo. We next performed glucose and insulin tolerance tests and found that glucose metabolism is normal in Appl1-null mice. We also tested the effect of Appl1 loss on Akt signaling in T cells, because we discovered that Appl1 strongly interacts with the p110β subunit of PI3K in T lymphocytes. However, such interaction was found to be dispensable for Akt signaling in thymic T cells and T-cell development. Moreover, Appl1 loss did not affect DNA synthesis in cultured thymocytes, although loss of Appl1 was associated with a slight increase in ConA-stimulated splenic T-cell viability/proliferation. Collectively, our findings indicate that Appl1 is dispensable for Akt signaling in vivo and T-cell differentiation.
