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

Somatostatin signals through somatostatin receptor subtypes (SSTR) 2 and 5 to attenuate GH secretion. Although expressed in normal pituitary glands and in GH-secreting pituitary tumors, SSTR3 function was unclear, and we have now determined the role of SSTR3 in somatotroph function. Stable rat pituitary tumor cell (GC) transfectants of human SSTR3 (GpSSTR3(WT)) showed suppression of rat (r) GH promoter activity, GH mRNA expression, and secreted GH concordant with suppressed cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA) signaling. In contrast, cAMP levels and GH expression were unchanged in cells expressing a mutant SSTR3 DRY motif (GpSSTR3(R141A)). GH expression was rescued by treatment of GpSSTR3(WT) with forskolin and 8-bromo-cAMP. GpSSTR3(WT) exhibited activation of glycogen synthase kinase3-β (GSK3-β), a PKA substrate, which was also reversed by 8-Bromo-cAMP treatment. Moreover, SSTR3-dependent GH transcriptional inhibition was rescued by inhibition of GSK3-β. GpSSTR3(WT) exhibited elevated Pit-1 serine phosphorylation and decreased Pit-1 occupancy of the rGH promoter with sustained Pit-1 expression. GSK3-β and Pit-1 physically interacted with each other, indicating that Pit-1 may be a GSK3-β phosphorylation substrate. In conclusion, constitutive SSTR3 activity mediates transcriptional repression of GH through cAMP/PKA, leading to subsequent activation of GSK3-β and increased Pit-1 phosphorylation and ultimately attenuating Pit-1 binding to the rGH promoter.
