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

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are important cargo in endocytic trafficking, yet their role in endosomal sorting and maturation of multivesicular bodies remains unclear. Here, we show that the ErbB3 (HER3) receptor sorts internalized Integrin β1 and the transferrin receptor, for endocytic recycling, in a manner that does not require ligand-induced ErbB3 signaling in breast epithelial cells. Loss of ErbB3 abrogates recycling of Integrin β1, likely from a Rab4-positive compartment, and redirects it toward lysosomal degradation or secretion as an extracellular vesicle (EV) cargo. ErbB3 depletion impairs the collective migration of breast epithelial cell sheets, coinciding with reduced cell-surface levels of Integrin β1 and increased release of Integrin β1-containing EVs. In contrast, EVs secreted from ErbB3-depleted cells enhance the motility of wild-type cells. Mechanistically, ErbB3 promotes assembly of the Arf6-GGA3-Rabaptin5 endosomal sorting complex to facilitate early recycling and suppress EV release. These findings provoke the notion that pseudo-RTKs play an active role in vesicular trafficking.
