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

Phospholipase C (PLC) enzymes convert the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) into inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). IP3 and DAG regulate numerous downstream pathways, eliciting diverse and profound cellular changes and physiological responses. In the six PLC subfamilies in higher eukaryotes, PLCβ is intensively studied due to its prominent role in regulating crucial cellular events underlying many processes including cardiovascular and neuronal signaling, and associated pathological conditions. In addition to GαqGTP, Gβγ generated upon G protein heterotrimer dissociation also regulates PLCβ activity. Here, we not only review how Gβγ directly activates PLCβ, and also extensively modulates Gαq-mediated PLCβ activity, but also provide a structure-function overview of PLC family members. Given that Gαq and PLCβ are oncogenes, and Gβγ shows unique cell-tissue-organ specific expression profiles, Gγ subtype-dependent signaling efficacies, and distinct subcellular activities, this review proposes that Gβγ is a major regulator of Gαq-dependent and independent PLCβ signaling.
