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

The Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line is the most widely used host cell for therapeutic antibody production. Although its productivity has been improved by various strategies to satisfy the growing global demand, some difficult-to-express (DTE) antibodies remain at low secretion levels. To improve the production of various therapeutic antibodies, it is necessary to determine possible rate-limiting steps in DTE antibody secretion in comparison with other high IgG producers. Here, we analyzed the protein secretion process in CHO cells producing the DTE immunoglobulin G (IgG) infliximab. The results from chase assays using a translation inhibitor revealed that infliximab secretion could be nearly completed within 2 h, at which time the cells still retained about 40% of heavy chains and 65% of light chains. Using fluorescent microscopy, we observed that these IgG chains remained in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. The cells inefficiently form fully assembled heterodimer IgG by making LC aggregates, which may be the most serious bottleneck in the production of DTE infliximab compared with other IgG high producers. Our study could contribute to establish the common strategy for constructing DTE high-producer cells on the basis of rate-limiting step analysis.
