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

To study an endocytotic role of the GTP-binding protein RhoA in Xenopus oocytes, we have monitored changes in the surface expression of sodium pumps, the surface area of the oocyte and the uptake of the fluid-phase marker inulin. Xenopus oocytes possess intracellular sodium pumps that are continuously exchanged for surface sodium pumps by constitutive endo- and exocytosis. Injection of Clostridium botulinum C3 exoenzyme, which inactivates Rho by ADP-ribosylation, induced a redistribution of virtually all intracellular sodium pumps to the plasma membrane and increased the surface area of the oocytes. The identical effects were caused by injection of ADP-ribosylated recombinant RhoA into oocytes. The C3 exoenzyme acts by blocking constitutive endocytosis in oocytes, as determined using a mAb to the beta 1 subunit of the mouse sodium pump as a reporter molecule and oocytes expressing heterologous sodium pumps. In contrast, an increase in endocytosis and a decrease in the surface area was induced by injection of recombinant Val14-RhoA protein or Val14-rhoA cRNA. PMA stimulated sodium pump endocytosis, an effect that was blocked by a specific inhibitor of protein kinase C (Gö 16) or by ADP-ribosylation of Rho by C3. Similarly, the phorbol ester-induced increase in fluid-phase endocytosis in oocytes was inhibited by Gö 16, C3 transferase, or by injection of ADP-ribosylated RhoA. In contrast to C3 transferase, C. botulinum C2 transferase, which ADP-ribosylates actin, had no effect on sodium pump endocytosis or PMA-stimulated fluid-phase endocytosis. The data suggests that RhoA is an essential component of a presumably clathrin-independent endocytic pathway in Xenopus oocytes which can be regulated by protein kinase C.
