A single-molecule reporter of membrane-proximal actin detects rapid remodeling upon B cell receptor clustering.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. 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
Membrane-proximal (MP) actin represents the subset of cortical f-actin localized within 10 nm of the plasma membrane. Here, we describe a family of single-molecule MP actin (SM-MPAct) probes that diffuse within the plasma membrane and are transiently immobilized through binding to f-actin, enabling the localization of MP actin in both time and space. These probes quantify aspects of MP actin structure, dynamics, and remodeling by analyzing probe positions using a combined single-particle tracking and correlation-function approach. This is demonstrated using chemical and physical perturbations of actin and actin-binding proteins, and by interrogating MP actin organization and dynamics in early B cell receptor (BCR) activation. Upon crosslinking of the IgM BCR, MP actin transiently remodels to increase the size of actin corals, facilitating the efficient assembly of BCR clusters and the local accumulation of MP actin. Notably, analogous remodeling is not detected in measurements using total f-actin probes, indicating that SM-MPAct is uniquely sensitive to the f-actin pool that regulates signaling processes at the plasma membrane.
