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

G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family of signalling proteins responsible for translating extracellular stimuli into intracellular functions. They play crucial roles in numerous physiological processes and are major targets for drug discovery. Dysregulation of GPCRs is implicated in various diseases, making understanding their structural dynamics critical for therapeutic development. Here, we use Hydrogen Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry (HDX-MS) to explore the structural dynamics of the turkey β1-adrenergic receptor (tβ1AR) bound with nine different ligands, including agonists, partial agonists, and antagonists. We find that these ligands induce distinct dynamic patterns across the receptor, which can be grouped by compound modality. Notably, full agonist binding destabilises the intracellular loop 1 (ICL1), while antagonist binding stabilises it, highlighting ICL1's role in G protein recruitment. Our findings indicate that the conserved L72 residue in ICL1 is crucial for maintaining receptor structural integrity and stabilising the GDP-bound state. Overall, our results provide a platform for determining drug modality and highlight how HDX-MS can be used to dissect receptor ligand interaction properties and GPCR mechanism.
