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

purposeTo examine functional activity of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in the blood-brain barrier (BBB) using near infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging techniques.

methodsCellular accumulation and bi-directional permeability of the NIRF probe, rhodamine 800 (R800) was determined in MDCKMDR1 and MDCKwt monolayers under normal conditions and following P-gp inhibition with GF120918. Functional P-gp activity was also assessed in mice following administration of R800 alone and with GF230918. Quantitative analysis of R800 fluorescence in brain tissue and blood was measured ex-vivo using Odyssey Near Infrared imaging.

resultsR800 accumulation was reduced in MDCKMDR1 compared to MDCKwt monolayers. Addition of GF120918, resulted in increased R800 accumulation in MDCKMDR1 monolayers. Permeability of R800 in MDCKMDR1 monolayers was significantly enhanced (4-fold) in the basolateral to apical direction under control conditions and was abolished following treatment with GF120918. With the exception of the choriod plexus, there was very little penetration of R800 into the brain under control conditions. Treatment of mice with GF120918 resulted in a nearly 4-fold increase in R800 fluorescence in the brain. In contrast, GF120918 had no effect on brain penetration of a vascular permeability marker.

conclusionsIn vitro studies demonstrate the P-gp transporter properties of the NIRF probe R800. Preliminary in vivo studies confirm the P-gp transporter liabilities of R800 and suggest this probe may be useful as a molecular imaging agent for examining P-gp activity in the BBB.
