Thymus-dependent modulation of Ly49 inhibitory receptor expression on NK1.1+gamma/delta T cells.
Article in Immunology, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-specific inhibitory receptors are expressed not only on natural killer (NK) cells but also on some subsets of T cells. We here show Ly49 expression on gamma/delta T cells in the thymus and liver of beta2-microglobulin-deficient (beta2m-/-) and C57BL/6 (beta2m+/+) mice. Ly49C/I or Ly49A receptor was expressed on NK1.1+gamma/delta T cells but not on NK1.1-gamma/delta T cells. The numbers of NK1.1+gamma/delta T cells were significantly smaller in beta2m+/+ mice than in beta2m-/- mice with the same H-2b genetic background. Among NK1.1+gamma/delta T cells, the proportions of Ly49C/I+ cells but not of Ly49A+ cells, were decreased in beta2m+/+ mice, suggesting that cognate interaction between Ly49C/I and H-2Kb is involved in the reduction of the number of Ly49C/I+ gamma/delta T cells in beta2m+/+ mice. The frequency of Ly49C/I+ cells in NK1.1+gamma/delta T cells was lower in both lethally irradiated beta2m+/+ mice transplanted with bone marrow (BM) from beta2m-/- mice and lethally irradiated beta2m-/- mice transplanted with BM from beta2m+/+ mice than those in adult thymectomized BM-transplanted chimera mice. These results suggest that reduction of Ly49C/I+ NK1.1+gamma/delta T cells in beta2m+/+ mice is at least partly due to the down-modulation by MHC class I molecules on BM-derived haematopoietic cells or radioresistant cells in the thymus.
