A novel CDK-2 homolog identified in lamprey, Lampetra japonica, with roles in apoptosis.

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
CDK-2, a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase family, plays an important role in many cell processes, such as cell cycle regulation, cell growth and differentiation, and cell apoptosis. Lampreys belong to the most primitive vertebrates, and there is no report about the CDK-2 gene in lampreys at present. In this study, a CDK-2-like gene sequence and deduced amino acid sequence were identified in Japanese lamprey (Lampetra japonica, L. japonica). The CDK-2-like gene has about 80% similarity with its homologs in jaw vertebrates. The polyclonal antibody against CDK-2-like was well prepared, and the results showed that CDK-2-like was highly expressed in the gonad tissue of lampreys. Apoptosis could reduce the expression of CDK-2-like in lymphocytes of lamprey, while overexpression of CDK-2-like could inhibit apoptosis. In addition, inhibition of CDK-2-like activity was able to trigger out apoptosis and also helped apoptotic inducer actinomycin D (Act-D) to induce apoptosis. These results suggest that CDK-2-like identified from lamprey may play a crucial role in apoptosis of jawless vertebrates.
