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

backgroundIn the present study, we describe heterodimerization between human-Somatostatin Receptor 5 (hSSTR5) and β2-Adrenergic Receptor (β2AR) and its impact on the receptor trafficking, coupling to adenylyl cyclase and signaling including mitogen activated protein kinases and calcineurin-NFAT pathways.

methodsWe used co-immunoprecipitation, photobleaching- fluorescence resonance energy transfer and Fluorescence assisted cell sorting analysis to characterize heterodimerization between SSTR5 and β2AR.

resultsOur results indicate that hSSTR5/β2AR exist as preformed heterodimers in the basal condition which is enhanced upon co-activation of both receptors. In contrast, the activation of individual receptors leads to the dissociation of heterodimers. Receptor coupling to adenylyl cyclase displayed predominant effect of β2AR, however, somatostatin mediated inhibition of cAMP was enhanced upon blocking β2AR. Our results indicate hSSTR5 mediated significant activation of ERK1/2 and inhibition of phospho-p38. The phospho-NFAT level was enhanced in cotransfected cells indicating the blockade of calcineurin mediated dephosphorylation of NFAT upon receptor heterodimerization.

conclusionThese data for the first time unveil a novel insight for the role of hSSTR5/β2AR in the modulation of signaling pathways which has not been addressed earlier.
