Improvement of Workflows and Assay Reproducibility by The Introduction of "Assay-Ready" Culturing of MDCK Cells for Transport Studies.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveIn previous studies, we established and validated three Madin Darby Canine Kidney MDCKII cell lines, recombinantly modified with zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) technology. Here, we investigated the applicability of seeding these three canine P-gp deficient MDCK_ZFN cell lines, directly from frozen cryopreserved stocks without previous cultivation for efflux transporter and permeability studies. This technique is referred to as "assay-ready" and allows for highly standardized conduction of cell-based assays and shorter cultivation cycles.
methodsTo obtain a rapid fitness of the cells for that purpose, a very gentle freezing and thawing protocol was applied. Assay-ready MDCK_ZFN cells were tested in bi-directional transport studies and compared to their traditionally cultured counterparts. Long-term performance robustness, human effective intestinal permeability (P

conclusionAssay-ready methodology for handling MDCK_ZFN cells allows more flexibility in assay planning and reduces performance fluctuations in assays caused by cell aging. Therefore, the assay-ready principle has proven superior over conventional cultivation for MDCK_ZFN cells and is considered as a key technology to optimize processes with other cellular systems.
