Effect of fibroblast growth factor saporin mitotoxins on human bladder cell lines.
Article in Clinical & experimental metastasis, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Mitotoxins targeted via high-affinity growth factor receptors on the cell surface are a potential means of anticancer therapy. We have evaluated the effect of a chemically conjugated (FGF2-SAP) and a fusion protein (rFGF2-SAP) mitotoxin containing FGF-2 and saporin on normal (FHs 738B1) and malignant bladder cell lines (HT1197, TCCSUP, EJ-6, and RT4). The FGF-saporins demonstrated potent cytotoxicity in malignant bladder cell lines with an ID50 range of 0.13-13.6 nM, whereas cells derived from normal fetal bladder (FHs 738B1) were less sensitive to FGF2-saporins (ID50 > 100 nM). Greater than a 100-fold difference in cytotoxicity between FGF-saporins and unconjugated saporin was observed. Assessment of cellular FGF-2 content and secretion showed that FHs 738B1 and TCCSUP contained and secreted significantly more FGF-2 compared to other cell lines tested. (125)I-FGF-2 receptor binding studies showed the presence of high-affinity (pM) FGF receptors on all bladder cell lines. Cross-linking studies revealed the presence of a major receptor-ligand complex of 90 kDa on FHs 738B1 and 160-170 kDa on the other bladder cell lines. All cell lines studied, except RT4, expressed solely FGFR-1. These studies demonstrate that FGF2-saporins have antiproliferative activity on human bladder cancer cell lines. However, the number of high-affinity FGF receptors, and FGF-2 cellular content and secretion are not absolute determinants of cellular sensitivity to FGF2-saporins.
