Experimental Approaches to Visualize Effector Protein Translocation During Host-Pathogen Interactions.
Review in BioEssays : news and reviews in molecular, cellular and developmental biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Bacterial pathogens deliver effector proteins into host cells by deploying sophisticated secretion systems. This effector translocation during host-pathogen interactions is a prerequisite for the manipulation of host cells and organisms and is important for pathogenesis. Analyses of dynamics and kinetics of translocation, subcellular localization, and cellular targets of effector proteins lead to understanding the mode of action and function of effector proteins in host-pathogen interplay. This review provides an overview of biochemical and genetic tools that have been developed to study protein effector translocation qualitatively or quantitatively. After introducing the challenges of analyses of effector translocation during host-pathogen interaction, we describe various methods ranging from static visualization in fixed cells to dynamic live-cell imaging of effector protein translocation. We show the main findings enabled by the approaches, emphasize the advantages and limitations of the methods, describe recent approaches that allow real-time tracking of effector proteins in living cells on a single molecule level, and highlight open questions in the field to be addressed by application of new methods.
