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

In the central nervous system, oligodendrocytes (OLs) form myelin sheaths that accomplish the efficient transmission of nerve conduction for optimal motor and cognitive functions. OL development and differentiation are regulated by a variety of molecules, including extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. ECM proteins are also useful as substrates for OL culture. However, the functions of ECM proteins in OL development and myelination remain unclear, and only a limited number of ECM proteins have been characterized and used in in vitro experiments. Here, we investigated the expression and function of laminin (LM) isoforms in OL differentiation and myelination. We found that LM α1, α2, and α4 chains were expressed around blood vessels at the stage of myelination in mice. Functional analyses using recombinant proteins of LM isoforms containing α1, α2, and α4 chains revealed that LM411 and LM411E8, the integrin binding domain of LM411, possessed significant activities in myelin membrane formation of OLs. Furthermore, the peptide A4G47 derived from LM411E8 promoted the activity, which provides evidence of the first peptide in OL myelin formation from ECM proteins. Our findings facilitate a better understanding of ECM functions in OL biology and the development of a new material in OL myelination.
