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

Bacillus anthracis lethal toxin consists of the protective antigen (PA) and the metalloprotease lethal factor (LF). During cellular uptake PA forms pores in membranes of endosomes, and unfolded LF translocates through the pores into the cytosol. We have investigated whether host cell chaperones facilitate translocation of LF and the fusion protein LF(N)DTA. LF(N) mediates uptake of LF(N)DTA into the cytosol, where DTA, the catalytic domain of diphtheria toxin, ADP-ribosylates elongation factor-2, allowing for detection of small amounts of translocated LF(N)DTA. Cyclosporin A, which inhibits peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase activity of cyclophilins, and radicicol, which inhibits Hsp90 activity, prevented uptake of LF(N)DTA into the cytosol of CHO-K1 cells and protected cells from intoxication by LF(N)DTA/PA. Both inhibitors, as well as an antibody against cyclophilin A blocked the release of active LF(N)DTA from endosomal vesicles into the cytosol in vitro. In contrast, the inhibitors did not inhibit cellular uptake of LF. In vitro, cyclophilin A and Hsp90 bound to LF(N)DTA and DTA but not to LF, implying that DTA determines this interaction. In conclusion, cyclophilin A and Hsp90 facilitate translocation of LF(N)DTA, but not of LF, across endosomal membranes, and thus they function selectively in promoting translocation of certain proteins, but not of others.
