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

Lysosomes are largely responsible for significant degradation of intracellular and extracellular proteins via the secretory pathway, autophagy, and endocytosis. Therefore, dysregulation of lysosomal homeostasis influences diverse cellular functions. However, a straightforward and quantitative method to measure the integrity of the lysosomal pathway has not been developed. Here, we report the plasmid-based lysosomal-METRIQ (MEasurement of protein Transporting integrity by RatIo Quantification) probe that enables simple quantification of lysosomal integrity by lysosomal green and cytosolic red fluorescent proteins using a flow cytometer. In cultured cells, the lysosomal-METRIQ probe detected not only suppression of the lysosomal pathway but also upregulation of lysosomal activity such as lysosomal biogenesis. To identify factors involved in lysosomal homeostasis, we carried out compound screening and found that the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors kenpaullone and purvalanol A induce synthesis of cathepsin D and an increase in the number of lysosomes. Subsequent studies revealed that CDK5 maintains lysosomal homeostasis independently of cell cycle arrest. Our results suggest that the lysosomal-METRIQ probe is an effective and efficient tool for measuring lysosomal activity in mammalian cells.
