A Cre-inducible fluorescent reporter for observing apical membrane dynamics.
Article in Genesis (New York, N.Y. : 2000). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
The ability to image living tissues with fluorescent proteins has revolutionized the fields of cell and developmental biology. Fusions between fluorescent proteins and various polypeptides are allowing scientists to image tissues with sub-cellular resolution. Here, we describe the generation and activity of a genetically engineered mouse line expressing a fusion between the green fluorescent protein (GFP) and the apically localized protein Crumbs3 (Crb3). This reporter drives Cre-inducible expression of Crb3-GFP under control of the EF1a regulatory domains. The fusion protein is broadly expressed in embryonic and adult tissues and shows apical restriction in the majority of epithelial cell types. It displays a variably penetrant gain of function activity in the neural tube. However, in several cell types, over-expression of Crb3 does not appear to have any effect on normal development or maintenance. Detailed analysis of kidneys expressing this reporter indicates normal morphology and function highlighting the utility for live imaging. Thus, the EF1a(Crb3-GFP) mouse line will be of broad use for studying membrane and/or tissue dynamics in living tissues.
