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

AMPA receptors (AMPAR) are organized into supramolecular complexes in association with other membrane proteins that provide exquisite regulation of their biophysical properties and subcellular trafficking. Proline-rich transmembrane protein 1 (PRRT1), also named as SynDIG4, is a component of native AMPAR complexes in multiple brain regions. Deletion of PRRT1 leads to altered surface levels and phosphorylation status of AMPARs, as well as impaired forms of synaptic plasticity. Here, we have investigated the mechanisms underlying the observed regulation of AMPARs by investigating the interaction properties and subcellular localization of PRRT1. Our results show that PRRT1 can interact physically with all AMPAR subunits GluA1-GluA4. We decipher the membrane topology of PRRT1 to find that contrary to the predicted dual membrane pass, only the second hydrophobic segment spans the membrane completely, and is involved in mediating the interaction with AMPARs. We also report a physical interaction of PRRT1 with phosphatase PP2B that dephosphorylates AMPARs during synaptic plasticity. Our co-localization analysis in primary neuronal cultures identifies that PRRT1 associates with AMPARs extrasynaptically where it localizes to early and recycling endosomes as well as to the plasma membrane. These findings advance the understanding of the mechanisms by which PRRT1 regulates AMPARs under basal conditions and during synaptic plasticity.
