3D organization and function of the cell: Golgi budding and vesicle biogenesis to docking at the porosome complex.

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.
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
Insights into the three-dimensional (3D) organization and function of intracellular structures at nanometer resolution, holds the key to our understanding of the molecular underpinnings of cellular structure-function. Besides this fundamental understanding of the cell at the molecular level, such insights hold great promise in identifying the disease processes by their altered molecular profiles, and help determine precise therapeutic treatments. To achieve this objective, previous studies have employed electron microscopy (EM) tomography with reasonable success. However, a major hurdle in the use of EM tomography is the tedious procedures involved in fixing, high-pressure freezing, staining, serial sectioning, imaging, and finally compiling the EM images to obtain a 3D profile of sub-cellular structures. In contrast, the resolution limit of EM tomography is several nanometers, as compared to just a single or even sub-nanometer using the atomic force microscope (AFM). Although AFM has been hugely successful in 3D imaging studies at nanometer resolution and in real time involving isolated live cellular and isolated organelles, it has had limited success in similar studies involving 3D imaging at nm resolution of intracellular structure-function in situ. In the current study, using both AFM and EM on aldehyde-fixed and semi-dry mouse pancreatic acinar cells, new insights on a number of intracellular structure-function relationships and interactions were achieved. Golgi complexes, some exhibiting vesicles in the process of budding were observed, and small vesicles were caught in the act of fusing with larger vesicles, possibly representing either secretory vesicle biogenesis or vesicle refilling following discharge, or both. These results demonstrate the power and scope of the combined engagement of EM and AFM imaging of fixed semi-dry cells, capable of providing a wealth of new information on cellular structure-function and interactions.
