Dynein functions in galectin-3 mediated processes of clathrin-independent endocytosis.
Article in Journal of biosciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Multiple endocytic processes operate in cells in tandem to uptake multiple cargoes involved in diverse cellular functions, including cell adhesion and migration. The best-studied clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) involves the formation of a well-defined cytoplasmic clathrin coat to facilitate cargo uptake. According to the glycolipid-lectin (GL-Lect) hypothesis, galectin-3 (Gal3) binds to glycosylated membrane receptors and glycosphingolipids (GSLs) to drive membrane bending and tubular membrane invaginations that undergo scission to form a morphologically distinct class of uptake structures, termed clathrin-independent carriers (CLICs). Which components from cytoskeletal machinery are involved in the scission of CLICs remains to be explored. In this study, we propose that dynein is recruited onto Gal3-induced tubular endocytic pits and provides the pulling force for friction-driven scission. The uptake of Gal3 and its cargoes (CD98/CD147) is significantly dependent on dynein activity, whereas only transferrin (CME marker) is slightly affected upon dynein inhibition. Our study reveals that Gal3 and Gal3-dependent (CD98 and CD147) clathrin-independent cargoes require dynein for the clathrin-independent endocytosis.
