Serum response factor deletion 5 regulates phospholamban phosphorylation and calcium uptake.

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
aimsPediatric dilated cardiomyopathy (pDCM) is characterized by unique age-dependent molecular mechanisms that include myocellular responses to therapy. We previously showed that pDCM, but not adult DCM patients respond to phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitors (PDE3i) by increasing levels of the second messenger cAMP and consequent phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLN). However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the differential pediatric and adult response to PDE3i are not clear. METHODS AND
resultsQuantification of serum response factor (SRF) isoforms from the left ventricle of explanted hearts showed that PDE3i treatment affects expression of SRF isoforms in pDCM hearts. An SRF isoform lacking exon 5 (SRFdel5) was highly expressed in the hearts of pediatric, but not adult DCM patients treated with PDE3i. To determine the functional consequence of expression of SRFdel5, we overexpressed full length SRF or SRFdel5 in cultured cardiomyocytes with and without adrenergic stimulation. Compared to a control adenovirus, expression of SRFdel5 increased phosphorylation of PLN, negatively affected expression of the phosphatase that promotes dephosphorylation of PLN (PP2Cε), and promoted faster calcium reuptake, whereas expression of full length SRF attenuated calcium reuptake through blunted phosphorylation of PLN.
conclusionsTaken together, these data indicate that expression of SRFdel5 in pDCM hearts in response to PDE3i contributes to improved function through regulating PLN phosphorylation and thereby calcium reuptake.
