Myosin II isoforms promote internalization of spatially distinct clathrin-independent endocytosis cargoes through modulation of cortical tension downstream of ROCK2.

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
Although the actomyosin cytoskeleton has been implicated in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, a clear requirement for actomyosin in clathrin-independent endocytosis (CIE) has not been demonstrated. We discovered that the Rho-associated kinase ROCK2 is required for CIE of MHCI and CD59 through promotion of myosin II activity. Myosin IIA promoted internalization of MHCI and myosin IIB drove CD59 uptake in both HeLa and polarized Caco2 intestinal epithelial cells. In Caco2 cells, myosin IIA localized to the basal cortex and apical brush border and mediated MHCI internalization from the basolateral domain, while myosin IIB localized at the basal cortex and apical cell-cell junctions and promoted CD59 uptake from the apical membrane. Atomic force microscopy demonstrated that myosin IIB mediated apical epithelial tension in Caco2 cells. Thus, specific cargoes are internalized by ROCK2-mediated activation of myosin II isoforms to mediate spatial regulation of CIE, possibly by modulation of local cortical tension.
