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

backgroundEndothelial progenitor cell (EPC) therapy has been suggested as a major breakthrough in the treatment of ischemic diseases. However, the molecular mechanism that underlies EPC functional regulation is still unclear.

methodsWe examined the angiogenic capacity of EPCs in a hindlimb ischemia model of wild-type and ClC-3 knockout mice.

resultsMice lacking of ClC-3 exhibited reduced blood flow recovery and neovascularization in ischemic muscles 7 and 14 days after hind limb ischemia. Moreover, compared with wild-type EPCs, the hindlimb blood reperfusion in mice receiving ClC-3 knockout EPCs was significantly impaired, accompanied by reduced EPC homing and retention. In vitro, EPCs derived from ClC-3 knockout mice displayed impaired migratory, adhesive, and angiogenic activity. CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) expression was significantly reduced in EPC from ClC-3 knockout mice compared with wild-type. Moreover, the expression and phosphorylation of Janus kinase 2 (JAK-2), a downstream signalling of CXCR4, was also reduced in ClC-3 knockout EPC, indicating that CXCR4/JAK-2 signalling is dysregulated by ClC-3 deficiency. Consistent with this assumption, the migratory capacity of wild-type EPCs was attenuated by either CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 or JAK-2 inhibitor AG490. More importantly, the impaired migratory capacity of ClC-3 knockout EPCs was rescued by overexpression of CXCR4.

conclusionsClC-3 plays a critical role in the angiogenic capacity of EPCs and EPC-mediated neovascularization of ischemic tissues. Disturbance of CXCR4/JAK-2 signalling may contribute to the functional impairment of ClC-3 deficient EPCs. Thus, ClC-3 may be a potential therapeutic target for modulating neovascularization in ischemic diseases.
