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

Administration of the Zeta Inhibitory Peptide (ZIP) interferes with memory maintenance and long-term potentiation (LTP). However, mice lacking its putative target, the protein kinase PKMζ, exhibit normal learning and memory as well as LTP, making ZIP's mechanism unclear. Here, we show that ZIP disrupts LTP by removing surface AMPA receptors through its cationic charge alone. This effect was fully blocked by drugs that block macropinocytosis and is dependent on endophilin A2 (endoA2)-mediated endocytosis. ZIP and other cationic peptides selectively removed newly inserted AMPAR nanoclusters, providing a mechanism by which these peptides erase memories without effects on basal synaptic function. Lastly, cationic peptides can be administered locally and/or systemically and can be combined with local microinjection of macropinocytosis inhibitors to modulate memories on local and brain-wide scales. Our findings have critical implications for an entire field of memory mechanisms and highlight a previously unappreciated mechanism by which memories can be lost.
