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

backgroundGLUT2 is translocated to the apical membrane of enterocytes exposed to glucose concentrations >∼50 mM. Mechanisms of GLUT2-mediated glucose uptake in cell culture models of enterocytes have not been studied.

aimTo explore mechanism(s) of glucose uptake in 3 enterocyte-like cell lines.

methodsGlucose uptake was measured in Caco-2, RIE-1, and IEC-6 cell lines using varying concentrations of glucose (0.5-50 mM). Effects of phlorizin (SGLT1 inhibitor), phloretin (GLUT2 inhibitor), nocodazole and cytochalasin B (disrupters of cytoskeleton), calphostin C and chelerythrine (PKC inhibitors), and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PKC activator) were evaluated.

resultsPhlorizin inhibited glucose uptake in all 3 cell lines. Phloretin inhibited glucose uptake in Caco-2 and RIE-1 cells. Starving cells decreased glucose uptake in Caco-2 and RIE-1 cells. Glucose uptake was saturated at >10 mM glucose in all 3 cell lines when exposed briefly (<1 min) to glucose. After exposure for >5 min in Caco-2 and RIE-1 cells, glucose uptake did not saturate and K(m) and V(max) increased. This increase in glucose uptake was inhibited by phloretin, nocodazole, cytochalasin B, calphostin C, and chelerythrine. PMA enhanced glucose uptake by 20%. Inhibitors and PMA had little or no effect in the IEC-6 cells.

conclusionConstitutive expression of GLUT2 in the apical membrane along with additional translocation of cytoplasmic GLUT2 to the apical membrane via an intact cytoskeleton and activated PKC appears responsible for enhanced carrier-mediated glucose uptake at greater glucose concentrations (>20 mM) in Caco-2 and RIE-1 cells. IEC-6 cells do not appear to express functional GLUT2.
