Superantigen-SEA gene modified tumor vaccine for hepatocellular carcinoma: an in vitro study.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2004. 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
aimTo construct an eukaryotic superantigen gene expression vector containing the recombinant gene of SEA and CD80 molecule transmembrane region (CD80TM), and to express staphylococcus enterotoxin A (SEA) on the membrane of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell to form a superantigen gene modified tumor vaccine for HCC.
methodsSEA and linker-CD80TM gene were amplified through PCR from plasmid containing cDNA of SEA and CD80. Gene fragments were then subcloned into the multiple cloning sites of retroviral vector pLXSN. Recombinant plasmid was transferred into HepG2 cells mediated with lipofectamine, positive clones were selected in culture medium containing G418. RT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescence studies confirmed that SEA was expressed specifically on HCC cell membrane. INFgamma-ELISPOT study demonstrated that SEA protein was expressed on the membrane of HCC cells. Cytotoxicity of HepG2-SEA primed CTLs (SEA-T) was analyzed by (51)Cr release assay. T cells cultured with rhIL-2 (IL-2-T) were used as control.
resultsRestriction digestion and sequence analyses confirmed the correctness of length, position and orientation of inserted fusion genes. SEA was expressed on the surface of HepG2 cells, HepG2-SEA had strong stimulating effect on production of HepG2 specific CTL (P<0.001). SEA-T had enhanced cytotoxicity to HepG2 cells (P<0.05).
conclusionTumor cell membrane expressed superantigen can be used to reinforce the immune effect of tumor cell vaccine for HCC, which provides a new method of the enhanced active immunotherapy for HCC.
