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

backgroundDiabetes may alter renal glucose reabsorption by sodium (Na(+))-dependent glucose transporters (SGLTs). Radiolabeled substrates are commonly used for in vitro measurements of SGLT activity in kidney cells. We optimized a method to measure glucose uptake using a fluorescent substrate, 2-(N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)amino)-2-deoxyglucose (2-NBDG).

methodsUptake buffers for 2-NBDG were the same as for (14)C-labeled α-methyl-d-glucopyranoside ([(14)C]AMG). Cell lysis buffer was optimized for fluorescence of 2-NBDG and Hoechst DNA stain. Uptake was performed on cultures of primary mouse kidney cells (PMKCs), the LLC-PK(1) proximal tubule cell line, or COS-7 cells transiently overexpressing mouse SGLT1 or SGLT2 by incubating cells at 37°C in buffer containing 50-200 μM 2-NBDG. Microscopy was performed to visualize uptake in intact cells, while a fluorescence microplate reader was used to measure intracellular concentration of 2-NBDG ([2-NBDG](i)) in cell homogenates.

resultsFluorescent cells were observed in cultures of PMKCs and LLC-PK(1) cells exposed to 2-NBDG in the presence or absence of Na(+). In LLC-PK(1) cells, 2-NBDG transport in the presence of Na(+) had a maximum rate of 0.05 nmol/min/μg of DNA. In these cells, Na(+)-independent uptake of 2-NBDG was blocked with the GLUT inhibitor, cytochalasin B. The Na(+)-dependent uptake of 2-NBDG decreased in response to co-exposure to the SGLT substrate, AMG, and it could be blocked with the SGLT inhibitor, phlorizin. Immunocytochemistry showed overexpression of SGLT1 and SGLT2 in COS-7 cells, in which, in the presence of Na(+), [2-NBDG](i) was fivefold higher than in controls.

conclusionGlucose transport in cultured kidney cells can be measured with the fluorescence method described in this study.
