CD95 ligand mediates T-cell receptor-induced apoptosis of a CD4+ CD8+ double positive thymic lymphoma.

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
Tumors in the thymus can be of different cellular origin. Among the most common tumors are thymoma and lymphoma, which are derived from transformed thymic epithelial cells and transformed lymphocytes, respectively. Thymic lymphoma and their response to apoptotic stimuli are poorly characterized. Here, we analyse apoptosis events in the thymic lymphoma cell line Thy278, which expresses cell surface antigens characteristic of immature double positive thymocytes. Upon T-cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 stimulation, Thy278 cells die by apoptosis, similar as primary thymocytes during negative selection. Caspases are crucial for deletion of both Thy278 cells and normal thymocytes. Moreover, we show that deletion of primary thymocytes and Thy278 cells upon CD3 stimulation is considerably impaired by neutralizing CD95L antibody. Thus, our results not only demonstrate that TCR-induced apoptosis is still functional in transformed thymocytes, but also suggest that Thy278 cells are a helpful model for the molecular analysis of negative selection.
