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

Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common inherited intellectual disability and monogenic cause of autism, results from loss of the protein fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein (FMRP), which regulates mRNA translation essential for brain development and synaptic plasticity. FMRP has been implicated in the synaptic localization and surface expression of various membrane proteins, yet underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we identified a broad dysregulation of membrane surface and associated proteins in FMRP-deficient neurons by quantitative mass spectrometry. Among them, we found increased steady-state levels of several subunits of the clathrin-adapter protein complex 2 (AP-2), including AP2A1 and AP2B1. We demonstrate that FMRP associates and represses translation of cognate mRNAs. Increased AP-2 in FXS models resulted in enhanced endocytosis of AP-2 cargoes, including dendritic AMPA receptors. These phenotypes were rescued by shRNA downregulation of AP2B1 to wild-type levels in FMRP-deficient neurons. These results reveal a novel translational mechanism controlling adapter dependent protein sorting in neuronal cells.
