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

The physicochemical properties of the lipid bilayer shape the structure and topology of membrane proteins and regulate their biological function. Here, we investigated the functional effects of various lipid bilayer compositions on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) in the presence and absence of its endogenous regulator, phospholamban (PLN). In the cardiac muscle, SERCA hydrolyzes one ATP molecule to translocate two Ca(2+) ions into the SR membrane per enzymatic cycle. Unphosphorylated PLN reduces SERCA's affinity for Ca(2+) and affects the enzymatic turnover. We varied bilayer thickness, headgroup, and fluidity and found that both the maximal velocity (V(max)) of the enzyme and its apparent affinity for Ca(2+) (K(Ca)) are strongly affected. Our results show that (a) SERCA's V(max) has a biphasic dependence on bilayer thickness, reaching maximum activity with 22-carbon lipid chain length, (b) phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylserine (PS) increase Ca(2+) affinity, and (c) monounsaturated lipids afford higher SERCA V(max) and Ca(2+) affinity than diunsaturated lipids. The presence of PLN removes the activating effect of PE and shifts SERCA's activity profile, with a maximal activity reached in bilayers with 20-carbon lipid chain length. Our results in synthetic lipid systems compare well with those carried out in native SR lipids. Importantly, we found that specific membrane compositions closely reproduce PLN effects (V(max) and K(Ca)) found in living cells, reconciling an ongoing controversy regarding the regulatory role of PLN on SERCA function. Taken with the physiological changes occurring in the SR membrane composition, these studies underscore a possible allosteric role of the lipid bilayers on the SERCA/PLN complex.
