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 human dopamine and norepinephrine transporters (hDAT and hNET, respectively) control neurotransmitter levels within the synaptic cleft and are the site of action for amphetamine (AMPH) and cocaine. We investigated the role of a threonine residue within the highly conserved and putative phosphorylation sequence RETW, located just before transmembrane domain 1, in regulating hNET and hDAT function. The Thr residue was mutated to either alanine or aspartate. Similar to the inward facing T62D-hDAT, T58D-hNET demonstrated reduced [(3)H]DA uptake but enhanced basal DA efflux compared with hNET with no further effect of AMPH. The mutations had profound effects on substrate function and binding. The potency of substrates to inhibit [(3)H]DA uptake and compete with radioligand binding was increased in T→A and/or T→D mutants. Substrates, but not inhibitors, demonstrated temperature-sensitive effects of binding. Neither the functional nor the binding potency for hNET blockers was altered from wild type in hNET mutants. There was, however, a significant reduction in potency for cocaine and benztropine to inhibit [(3)H]DA uptake in T62D-hDAT compared with hDAT. The potency of these drugs to inhibit [(3)H](-)-2-β-carbomethoxy-3-β-(4-fluorophenyl)tropane-1,5-napthalenedisulfonate (WIN35,428) binding was not increased, demonstrating a discordance between functional and binding site effects. Taken together, these results concur with the notion that the T→D mutation in RETW alters the preferred conformation of both hNET and hDAT to favor one that is more inward facing. Although substrate activity and binding are primarily altered in this conformation, the function of inhibitors with distinct structural characteristics may also be affected.
