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

Impaired mitochondria dynamics and quality control are involved in mitochondrial dysfunction and pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). VPS35 mutations cause autosomal dominant PD and we recently demonstrated that fPD-associated VPS35 mutants can cause mitochondrial fragmentation through enhanced VPS35-DLP1 interaction. In this study, we focused on the specific sites on DLP1 responsible for the VPS35-DLP1 interaction. A highly conserved FLV motif was identified in the C-terminus of DLP1, mutation of which significantly reduced VPS35-DLP1 interaction. A decoy peptide design based on this FLV motif could block the VPS35-DLP1 interaction and inhibit the recycling of mitochondrial DLP1 complexes. Importantly, VPS35 D620N mutant-induced mitochondrial fragmentation and respiratory deficits could be rescued by the treatment of this decoy peptide in both M17 cells overexpressing D620N or PD fibroblasts bearing this mutation. Overall, our results lend further support to the notion that VPS35-DLP1 interaction is key to the retromer-dependent recycling of mitochondrial DLP1 complex during mitochondrial fission and provide a novel therapeutic target to control excessive fission and associated mitochondrial deficits.
