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

Activation of human T lymphocytes leads to the phosphorylation of the CD3-antigen gamma polypeptide. We have investigated a possible role for protein kinase C (PKC) in mediating this phosphorylation event by using T cells permeabilized with streptolysin-O in the presence of 120 mM-K+ buffers containing Ca2+-EGTA. The gamma-chain was phosphorylated by [gamma-32P]ATP in permeabilized T lymphoblasts in the presence of phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (Pdbu) or phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). Ca2+ alone in the range 0.5-1.0 microM also induced gamma-chain phosphorylation in some T-lymphoblast preparations; that in Jurkat-6 cells occurred at lower concentrations (50-500 nM). Two experimental approaches were used to investigate the possible involvement of PKC. Firstly, when permeabilization was carried out in buffer lacking free Ca2+, PKC was lost from the cells, and gamma-chain phosphorylation could then no longer be induced on subsequent addition of Pdbu or PHA in 400 nM-Ca2+, or 800 nM-Ca2+ alone, to permeabilized cells. However, when permeabilization was carried out in the presence of these three agents, PKC was translocated to intracellular membranes, and subsequent addition of [gamma-32P]ATP to these cells then resulted in gamma-chain phosphorylation. In the second approach, induction of gamma-chain phosphorylation by Pdbu, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol, 1,2-diolein, PHA or Ca2+ alone was effectively blocked by permeabilizing T cells in the presence of a PKC pseudosubstrate peptide (50 microM). Pseudosubstrate concentrations in the range 7-20 microM inhibited gamma-chain phosphorylation by 50%. In contrast, addition of four other 'irrelevant' basic peptides (50 microM) did not result in detectable inhibition, and 50 microM-pseudosubstrate did not inhibit the phosphorylation of 17 other polypeptides isolated from permeabilized T cells. These data suggest that Pdbu-, 1,2-diacylglycerol-, PHA- and Ca2+-induced phosphorylation of the CD3-antigen gamma chain in permeabilized T cells is mediated by PKC.
