PS1/gamma-secretase acts as rogue chaperone of glutamate transporter EAAT2/GLT-1 in Alzheimer's disease.

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 recently discovered interaction between presenilin 1 (PS1), a subunit of γ-secretase involved in amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide production, and GLT-1, the major brain glutamate transporter (EAAT2 in the human), may link two pathological aspects of Alzheimer's disease: abnormal Aβ occurrence and neuronal network hyperactivity. In the current study, we employed a FRET-based fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) to characterize the PS1/GLT-1 interaction in brain tissue from sporadic AD (sAD) patients. sAD brains showed significantly less PS1/GLT-1 interaction than those with frontotemporal lobar degeneration or non-demented controls. Familial AD (fAD) PS1 mutations, inducing a "closed" PS1 conformation similar to that in sAD brain, and gamma-secretase modulators (GSMs), inducing a "relaxed" conformation, respectively reduced and increased the interaction. Furthermore, PS1 influences GLT-1 cell surface expression and homomultimer formation, acting as a chaperone but not affecting GLT-1 stability. The diminished PS1/GLT-1 interaction suggests that these functions may not work properly in AD.
