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

Phosphorylation of the μ opioid receptor (MOPr), mediated by several protein kinases, is a critical process in the regulation of MOPr signaling. Although G protein-coupled receptor kinases are known to play an essential role in the agonist-induced phosphorylation and desensitization of MOPr, evidence suggests that other protein kinases, especially protein kinase C (PKC), also participate in the regulation of MOPr signaling. In this study, we investigated the biochemical nature and downstream effects of PKC-mediated MOPr phosphorylation. We observed in vitro phosphorylation of the MOPr C terminus by purified PKC. Protein mass spectrometry and site-directed mutagenesis implicated Ser363 of MOPr as the primary substrate for PKC, and this was confirmed in Chinese hamster ovary cells stably expressing full-length MOPr using an antibody that specifically recognizes phosphorylated Ser363. Alanine mutation of Ser363 did not affect the affinity of MOPr-ligand binding and the efficiency of receptor G-protein coupling. However, the S363A mutation attenuated the desensitization of receptor G-protein coupling induced by phorbol 12-myristate. Our research thus has identified a specific PKC phosphorylation site in MOPr and demonstrated that PKC-mediated phosphorylation of MOPr induces receptor desensitization at the G protein coupling level.
