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

Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) is a gut hormone that plays a pivotal role in regulating intestinal epithelial cell growth and function, making it a promising therapeutic agent for intestinal damage and bone-related diseases. Nonetheless, the therapeutic potential of GLP-2 is substantially diminished due to its inactivation by dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4). In recent years, advancements have been made in developing dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) resistant GLP-2 analogues with an extended half-life. The murine model with extensive experimental bowel resection maintained on parenteral nutrition has been used for assessing the physiology and pharmacology of GLP-2, and for the preclinical validation of GLP-2 analogues. However, it possesses certain limitations, such as complex procedure, considerable variability, and time-consuming nature. Consequently, there is a pressing need for the development of a cell-based bioassay to assess GLP-2 analogues. Here, we successfully developed a mechanism-of-action (MOA)-reflective cell-based reporter gene assay (RGA), utilizing a stable HEK293 cell line expressing the GLP-2 receptor and a luciferase reporter gene. This innovative approach allows for precise quantification of the potency of GLP-2 analogues. The RGA demonstrated good accuracy, linearity, precision, and specificity, with potential applications in stability testing, drug screening, and therapeutic monitoring of GLP-2 analogues. Moreover, RNA sequencing reveals the multi-target regulatory effect of GLP-2 analogues. The establishment of this RGA provides a valuable tool for evaluating the potency of GLP-2 analogues and the screening of potential therapeutic drugs targeting to GLP-2 receptor.
