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

purposeThe peptide-based delivery system constitutes a potent approach to overcome the limitations of drug delivery in vitro and in vivo. We recently proposed a novel peptide RDP, which enables brain-targeting delivery of proteins into neuronal cells. Here we investigate the possible internalization mechanism of RDP, and identify the therapeutic effects of functional proteins when linked with RDP in brain disease.

methodsThe RDP fusion proteins are produced through recombinant DNA technology, and cell culture is used to investigate the uptake mechanism of RDP and its fusion protein. Experimental Parkinson's disease (PD) model is prepared in mice by intra-striatal injection of 6-hydroxydopamine, and is tested by apomorphine- and amphetamine-induced rotation.

resultsThe results suggest that the possible route for RDP cellular uptake might involve GABA receptor-dependent, clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway. Additionally, the conjugate of RDP and glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) exhibits the neuroprotective effect in experimental PD animals, including reduction of apomorphine- and amphetamine-induced rotation following toxin administration.

conclusionsRDP may become an effective tool for the targeted delivery of proteins into brain for disease treatment.
