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

The dynamic regulation of epithelial adherens junctions relies on all components of the E-cadherin-catenin complex. Previously, the complexes have been partially reconstituted and composed only of α-catenin, β-catenin, and the E-cadherin cytoplasmic domain. However, p120-catenin and the full-length E-cadherin including the extracellular, transmembrane, and intra-cellular domains are vital to the understanding of the relationship between extracellular adhesion and intracellular signaling. Here, we reconstitute the complete and full-length cadherin-catenin complex, including full-length E-cadherin, α-catenin, β-catenin, and p120-catenin, into nanodiscs. We are able to observe the cadherin in nanodiscs by cryo-EM. We also reconstitute α-catenin, β-catenin, and p120-catenin with the E-cadherin cytoplasmic tail alone in order to analyze the affinities of their binding interactions. We find that p120-catenin does not associate strongly with α- or β-catenin and binds much more transiently to the cadherin cytoplasmic tail than does β-catenin. Overall, this work creates many new possibilities for biochemical studies understanding transmembrane signaling of cadherins and the role of p120-catenin in adhesion activation.
