Direct visualization of glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion by fluorescent fusion proteins.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Live-cell imaging with fluorescent proteins (FPs) is a powerful tool for investigating the exocytosis processes of hormones. However, the secretion process of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) has not been visualized by FPs, which might be because tagging FPs inhibits GLP-1 synthesis through the post-translational processing from proglucagon. Here, we have developed FP-tagged GLP-1 by inserting FPs into the middle of GLP-1 and adding the proglucagon signal peptide. Confocal imaging confirmed that GLP-1 fused to FPs with high folding efficiency showed granular structure, in which secretory vesicle markers colocalized. The fluorescence intensity of FP in the culture supernatant from cells treated with KCl or forskolin was significantly increased compared with those from untreated cells. Furthermore, FP-tagged GLP-1 enables direct visualization of stimulation-dependent exocytosis of GLP-1 at a single granule resolution with total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. FP-tagged GLP-1 might facilitate the screening of GLP-1 secretagogues and the discovery of new antidiabetic drugs.
