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

Epithelium acts as a barrier separating the interior and exterior of the body, and the epithelial and endothelial cells form tight junctions (TJs) by sealing the paracellular space. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) endothelial cells have well-developed TJs and express specific polarized transport systems to tightly control paracellular movements of solutes, ions, and water. Thus, more than 98% of small-molecular-weight drugs cannot pass the BBB. The tricellular TJ (tTJ) is a structure at contacts of three cells. Angulin-1, also known as lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR), is one of angulin family and is abundantly expressed in brain endothelial cells, which plays an important role in barrier function of the BBB. The C-terminal domain of a receptor-binding component of Clostridium perfringens iota-toxin (Ib421-664), also named as angubindin-1, binds to its receptors angulin-1 and angulin-3. This angubindin-1 modulates the tTJ barrier and is able to deliver a 16-mer gapmer antisense oligonucleotide (5.3 kDa) without adverse effects. Thus, angulin binders, such as angubindin-1, are useful tools for studying the safety assessment of tTJ-targeted drug delivery and BBB permeability modulation. Here, we provide a protocol for the expression and purification of recombinant angubindin-1 protein as angulin binders, an analysis method for angubindin-1 binding affinity, and a procedure for assessing the effect of modulating tight junction integrity.
