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

1. We examined the relationship between calcineurin (protein phosphatase 2B (PP2B) and voltage-operated Ca2+ channels (VOCCs) in NG108-15 cells. PP2B expression in NG108-15 cells was altered by transfection with plasmid constructs containing a full length cDNA of human PP2B beta(3) in sense (CN-15) and antisense (CN-21) orientation. 2. Confocal immunocytochemical localization showed that in wild-type cells, PP2B immunoreactivity is uniformly distributed in undifferentiated cells and located at the inner surface of soma membrane and neurites in differentiated cells. 3. To test the Ca2+ dependence of the VOCC, we used high-frequency stimulation (HFS). The L- and N-type VOCCs decreased by 37 and 52%, respectively, whereas the T-type current was only marginally sensitive to this procedure. FK-506 (2 microM), a specific blocker of PP2B, reduced the inhibition of L- and N-type VOCCs induced by HFS by 30 and 33%, respectively. 4. In CN-15-transfected cells overexpressing PP2B, total high-voltage-activated (HVA) VOCCs were suppressed by about 60% at a test potential of +20 mV. Intracellular addition of EGTA or FK-506 into CN-15-transfected cells induced an up to 5-fold increase of HVA VOCCs. 5. These findings indicate that PP2B activity does not influence the expression of HVA Ca2+ channels, but modulates their function by Ca(2+)-dependent dephosphorylation. Thus HVA VOCCs, in a phosphorylated state under control conditions, are downregulated by PP2B upon stimulation, with the major effect on N-type VOCCs.
