APEX2-Mediated Proximity Labeling of Wnt Receptor Interactors Upon Pathway Activation.
Article in microPublication biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The Wnt signaling pathway regulates metazoan development, tissue homeostasis, and regeneration. Many outstanding questions in Wnt signal transduction revolve around the molecular events immediately following Wnt-receptor interactions. To identify binding partners of the Wnt receptor Frizzled 7 (Fzd7) upon pathway activation, we tagged Fzd7 with APEX2, an enzyme that allows biotinylation of proximal interactors with high temporal and spatial resolution. Upon confirming proper localization and signaling activity of APEX2-tagged Fzd7, we labeled proximal interactors of Fzd7 with or without Wnt3a stimulation. Mass spectrometry analysis of biotinylated interactors identified several known Wnt pathway proteins. Top interactors enriched upon Wnt treatment were involved in actin cytoskeleton regulation, vesicle trafficking, or phospholipid modification. Proteins enriched in the Wnt-activated Fzd7 interactome that are without established roles in Wnt signaling warrant further examination.
