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

The human MAGE-1 gene encodes a melanoma peptide antigen recognized by autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes. To produce antibodies against the MAGE-1 gene product, several approaches were taken. Three oligopeptides were synthesized based on predicted MAGE-1 amino acid sequences and were used to generate rabbit anti-peptide anti-sera. In addition, a truncated MAGE-1 cDNA was cloned into an Escherichia coli expression vector, and recombinant protein was produced and purified. All three rabbit anti-peptide antisera showed reactivity against the immunizing peptide, and one reacted with the recombinant MAGE-1 protein by immunoblotting, but none reacted with cell lysates from MAGE-1 mRNA-positive cells. The recombinant MAGE-1 protein was then used for the generation of mouse monoclonal and rabbit polyclonal antibodies. One IgG1 monoclonal antibody, MA454, as well as rabbit polyclonal antisera recognized a 46-kDa protein in extracts of MAGE-1 mRNA-positive melanoma cell lines. The antibodies showed no apparent cross-reactivity with products of the closely related MAGE-2 and MAGE-3 genes. Serological typing of normal and tumor cell lysates was in full agreement with mRNA analysis, showing expression of MAGE-1 protein in MAGE-1 mRNA-positive testis and a subset of melanomas but not in MAGE-1 mRNA-negative normal or tumor tissues. Transfection of the MAGE-1 gene into a MAGE-1 mRNA-negative melanoma cell line resulted in the expression of the 46-kDa protein, confirming the identity of this protein as the MAGE-1 gene product.
