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

In view of understanding the mechanisms of retinal neovascularization, we had reported previously that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced pathological retinal angiogenesis requires the activation of Src-PLD1-PKCγ signaling. In the present work, we have identified cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) as an effector molecule of Src-PLD1-PKCγ signaling in the mediation of VEGF-induced pathological retinal angiogenesis based on the following observations. VEGF induced cPLA(2) phosphorylation in a time-dependent manner in human retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMVECs). VEGF also induced arachidonic acid (AA) release in a dose-, time-, and cPLA(2)-dependent manner. Depletion of cPLA(2) levels inhibited VEGF-induced HRMVEC DNA synthesis, migration, and tube formation. In addition, the exogenous addition of AA rescued VEGF-induced HRMVEC DNA synthesis, migration, and tube formation from inhibition by down-regulation of cPLA(2). Inhibition of Src, PLD1, or PKCγ attenuated VEGF-induced cPLA(2) phosphorylation and AA release. Consistent with these findings, hypoxia induced cPLA(2) phosphorylation and activity in VEGF-Src-PLD1-PKCγ-dependent manner in a mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy. In addition, siRNA-mediated down-regulation of cPLA(2) levels in the retina abrogated hypoxia-induced retinal endothelial cell proliferation and neovascularization. These observations suggest that cPLA(2)-dependent AA release is required for VEGF-induced Src-PLD1-PKCγ-mediated pathological retinal angiogenesis.
