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

Growth-associated protein 43 (GAP43) is known to regulate axon growth, but whether it also plays a role in synaptogenesis remains unclear. Here, we found that GAP43 regulates the aggregation of gephyrin, a pivotal protein for clustering postsynaptic GABA(A) receptors (GABA(A)Rs), in developing cortical neurons. Pharmacological blockade of either protein kinase C (PKC) or neuronal activity increased both GAP43-gephyrin association and gephyrin misfolding-induced aggregation, suggesting the importance of PKC-dependent regulation of GABAergic synapses. Furthermore, we found that PKC phosphorylation-resistant GAP43(S41A), but not PKC phosphorylation-mimicking GAP43(S41D), interacted with cytosolic gephyrin to trigger gephyrin misfolding and its sequestration into aggresomes. In contrast, GAP43(S41D), but not GAP43(S41A), inhibited the physiological aggregation/clustering of gephyrin, reduced surface GABA(A)Rs under physiological conditions, and attenuated gephyrin misfolding under transient oxygen-glucose deprivation (tOGD) that mimics pathological neonatal hypoxia. Calcineurin-mediated GAP43 dephosphorylation that accompanied tOGD also led to GAP43-gephyrin association and gephyrin misfolding. Thus, PKC-dependent phosphorylation of GAP43 plays a critical role in regulating postsynaptic gephyrin aggregation in developing GABAergic synapses.
