ATP-dependent transport of unconjugated bilirubin by rat liver canalicular plasma membrane vesicles.

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
The transport of highly purified 3H-labelled unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) was investigated in rat liver plasma membrane vesicles enriched in the canalicular domain and found to be stimulated (more than 5-fold) by the addition of ATP. Other nucleotides, such as AMP, ADP, GTP and a non-hydrolysable ATP analogue (adenosine 5'-[alpha, beta-methylene] triphosphate), did not stimulate [3H]UCB transport, indicating that ATP hydrolysis was necessary for the stimulatory effect. [3H]UCB uptake occurred into an osmotically sensitive space. At an unbound bilirubin concentration ([Bf]) below saturation of the aqueous phase (no more than 70 nM UCB), the ATP-dependent transport followed saturation kinetics with respect to [Bf], with a Km of 26+/-8 nM and a Vmax of 117+/-11 pmol per 15 s per mg of protein. Unlabelled UCB inhibited the uptake of [3H]UCB, indicating that UCB was the transported species. Inhibitors of ATPase activity such as vanadate or diethyl pyrocarbonate decreased the ATP effect (59+/-11% and 100% respectively). Daunomycin, a known substrate for multidrug resistance protein-1, and taurocholate did not inhibit the ATP-dependent [3H]UCB transport, suggesting that neither mdr-1 nor the canalicular bile acid transporter is involved in the canalicular transport of UCB. [3H]UCB uptake (both with and without ATP) in canalicular vesicles obtained from TR- rats was comparable to that in vesicles obtained from Wistar rats, indicating that the canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter, cMOAT, does not account for UCB transport. These results indicate that UCB is transported across the canalicular membrane of the liver cell by an ATP-dependent mechanism involving an as yet unidentified transporter.
