Distinctive inhibition of the lysosomal targeting of lysozyme and cathepsin D by drugs affecting pH gradients and protein kinase C.
Article in The Biochemical journal, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Morphological and biochemical evidence indicates that in several cell types, lysozyme is found in both lysosomes and the medium. Here we report that in calcitriol-treated human promonocytes U937, in which approx. two-thirds of the synthesized lysozyme is secreted, most of the intracellular lysozyme co-localizes with cathepsin D in lysosomal organelles. In the presence of NH4Cl the lysosomal targeting of procathepsin D, but not that of lysozyme, is inhibited. In the presence of 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (4 beta-PMA; 'TPA'), the lysosomal packaging of lysozyme is almost completely inhibited, while that of procathepsin D is only partially so. However, the inhibition of the lysosomal targeting of procathepsin D by NH4Cl and 4 beta-PMA is additive. The targeting of lysozyme is partially inhibited in the presence of R-59022, an inhibitor of diacylglycerol kinase, whereas it is not affected by 4 alpha-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, an isomer of 4 beta-PMA that does not activate protein kinase C. It is concluded that in U937 cells both carbohydrate-dependent and -independent recognition contributes to the lysosomal targeting of soluble proteins. We suggest that the carbohydrate-independent traffic of proteins to lysosomal compartments is controlled by a signalling pathway involving protein kinase C.
