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

ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf)-like 4D (Arl4D), one of the Arf-like small GTPases, functions in the regulation of cell morphology, cell migration, and actin cytoskeleton remodeling. End-binding 1 (EB1) is a microtubule (MT) plus-end tracking protein that preferentially localizes at the tips of the plus ends of growing MTs and at the centrosome. EB1 depletion results in many centrosome-related defects. Here, we report that Arl4D promotes the recruitment of EB1 to the centrosome and regulates MT nucleation. We first showed that Arl4D interacts with EB1 in a GTP-dependent manner. This interaction is dependent on the C-terminal EB homology region of EB1 and partially dependent on an SxLP motif of Arl4D. We found that Arl4D colocalized with γ-tubulin in centrosomes and the depletion of Arl4D resulted in a centrosomal MT nucleation defect. We further demonstrated that abolishing Arl4D-EB1 interaction decreased MT nucleation rate and diminished the centrosomal recruitment of EB1 without affecting MT growth rate. In addition, Arl4D binding to EB1 increased the association between the p150 subunit of dynactin and the EB1, which is important for MT stabilization. Together, our results indicate that Arl4D modulates MT nucleation through regulation of the EB1-p150 association at the centrosome.
