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 aim of this study was to determine the expression and function of proton-coupled oligopeptide transporters (POTs) in spleen and macrophages and their contribution to innate immune response induced by bacterial peptidomimetics γ-iE-DAP and MDP. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot results revealed the mRNA and protein expression of PepT2, PhT1, and PhT2, but not PepT1, in the spleen of mice and humans. In comparison to lymphocytes of the spleen, macrophages had higher transcript levels of PepT2 and PhT2. The cellular uptake of Ala-Lys-AMCA in mouse splenic macrophages was pH-dependent with maximum uptake at pH 6.0, and the kinetic parameters were K(m) = 75.5 ± 14.3 μM and V(max) = 25.4 ± 2.1 pmol/min per mg protein. The uptake of Ala-Lys-AMCA by mouse splenic macrophages was not inhibited by histidine but was significantly inhibited by glycyl-sarcosine (GlySar) and carnosine (P < 0.01), and by bacterial peptidomimetics γ-iE-DAP and MDP, ligands of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-containing proteins. Carnosine and GlySar, but not histidine, attenuated the inflammatory response induced by γ-iE-DAP and MDP in mouse splenic macrophages. Functional expression of POTs was also demonstrated in THP-1 cells, and dipeptides reduced the immune response induced by γ-iE-DAP. In conclusion, our findings are novel by providing important information on the molecular and functional expression of POTs in the spleen. Moreover, it appears that the PepT2-mediated uptake of γ-iE-DAP and MDP in macrophages further contributes to the innate immune response.
