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

Neuronal depolarization induces the synaptic release of tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA). Cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (Cdk5) is a member of the family of cyclin-dependent kinases that regulates cell migration and synaptic function in postmitotic neurons. Cdk5 is activated by its binding to p35 (also known as Cdk5r1), a membrane-anchored protein that is rapidly degraded by the proteasome. Here, we show that tPA prevents the degradation of p35 in the synapse by a plasminogen-dependent mechanism that requires open synaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. We show that tPA treatment increases the abundance of p35 and its binding to Cdk5 in the postsynaptic density (PSD). Furthermore, our data indicate that tPA-induced p35-mediated Cdk5 activation does not induce cell death, but instead prevents NMDA-induced ubiquitylation of postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95; also known as Dlg4) and the removal of GluR1 (also known as Gria1)-containing α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazoleproprionic acid (AMPA) receptors from the PSD. These results show that the interaction between tPA and synaptic NMDA receptors regulates the expression of AMPA receptor subunits in the PSD via p35-mediated Cdk5 activation. This is a novel role for tPA as a regulator of Cdk5 activation in cerebral cortical neurons.
