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

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is recognized as an important signaling molecule in plants. We sought to establish a genetically encoded, fluorescent H2O2 sensor that allows H2O2 monitoring in all major subcompartments of a Chlamydomonas cell. To this end, we used the Chlamydomonas Modular Cloning toolbox to target the hypersensitive H2O2 sensor reduction-oxidation sensitive green fluorescent protein2-Tsa2ΔCR to the cytosol, nucleus, mitochondrial matrix, chloroplast stroma, thylakoid lumen, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The sensor was functional in all compartments, except for the ER where it was fully oxidized. Employing our novel sensors, we show that H2O2 produced by photosynthetic linear electron transport (PET) in the stroma leaks into the cytosol but only reaches other subcellular compartments if produced under nonphysiological conditions. Furthermore, in heat-stressed cells, we show that cytosolic H2O2 levels closely mirror temperature up- and downshifts and are independent from PET. Heat stress led to similar up- and downshifts of H2O2 levels in the nucleus and, more mildly, in mitochondria but not in the chloroplast. Our results thus suggest the establishment of steep intracellular H2O2 gradients under normal physiological conditions with limited diffusion into other compartments. We anticipate that these sensors will greatly facilitate future investigations of H2O2 biology in plant cells.
