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

Both Arp2/3 complex and the Abl2/Arg nonreceptor tyrosine kinase are essential to form and maintain diverse actin-based structures in cells, including cell edge protrusions in fibroblasts and cancer cells and dendritic spines in neurons. The ability of Arg to promote cell edge protrusions in fibroblasts does not absolutely require kinase activity, raising the question of how Arg might modulate actin assembly and turnover in the absence of kinase function. Arg has two distinct actin-binding domains and interacts physically and functionally with cortactin, an activator of the Arp2/3 complex. However, it was not known whether and how Arg influences actin filament stability, actin branch formation, or cofilin-mediated actin severing or how cortactin influences these reactions of Arg with actin. Arg or cortactin bound to actin filaments stabilizes them from depolymerization. Low concentrations of Arg and cortactin cooperate to stabilize filaments by slowing depolymerization. Arg stimulates formation of actin filament branches by Arp2/3 complex and cortactin. An Arg mutant lacking the C-terminal calponin homology actin-binding domain stimulates actin branch formation by the Arp2/3 complex, indicative of autoinhibition. ArgΔCH can stimulate the Arp2/3 complex even in the absence of cortactin. Arg greatly potentiates cofilin severing of actin filaments, and cortactin attenuates this enhanced severing. The ability of Arg to stabilize filaments, promote branching, and increase severing requires the internal (I/L)WEQ actin-binding domain. These activities likely underlie important roles that Arg plays in the formation, dynamics, and stability of actin-based cellular structures.
