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

aimTRPV4-C1 heteromeric channels contribute to store-operated Ca(2+) entry in vascular endothelial cells. However, the negative regulation of these channels is not fully understood. This study was conducted to investigate the inhibitory effect of PKG1α on TRPV4-C1 heteromeric channels.

methodsImmuno-fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was used to explore the spatial proximity of PKG1α and TRPC1. Phosphorylation of endogenous TRPC1 was tested by phosphorylation assay. [Ca(2+)]i transients and cation current in MAECs were assessed with Fura-2 fluorescence and whole-cell recording, respectively. In addition, rat mesenteric arteries segments were prepared, and vascular relaxation was examined with wire myography.

resultsIn immuno-FRET experiments, after exposure of these cells to 8-Br-cGMP, more PKG1α was observed in the plasma membrane, and PKG1α and TRPC1 were observed to be in closer proximity. TAT-TRPC1(S172) and TAT-TRPC1(T313) peptide fragments, which contain the PKG targeted residues Ser172 and Thr313, respectively, were introduced into isolated endothelial cells to abrogate the translocation of PKG1α. Furthermore, a phosphorylation assay demonstrated that PKG directly phosphorylates TRPC1 at Ser172 and Thr313 in endothelial cells. In addition, PKG activator 8-Br-cGMP markedly reduced the magnitude of the 4αPDD-induced and 11,12-EET-induced [Ca(2+)]i transients, the cation current and vascular relaxation.

conclusionThis study uncovers a novel mechanism by which PKG negatively regulates endothelial heteromeric TRPV4-C1 channels through increasing the spatial proximity of TRPV4-C1 to PKG1α via translocation and through phosphorylating Ser172 and Thr313 of TRPC1.
