Expression of TCTP antisense in CD25(high) regulatory T cells aggravates cuff-injured vascular inflammation.
Article in Atherosclerosis, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 55 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
This study examines our hypothesis that translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) expression in CD4+ CD25(high) regulatory T cells (Tregs) is critical for the interleukin-2 (IL-2) withdrawal-triggered apoptosis pathway in Tregs, and modulation of Treg apoptosis pathway affects development of vascular inflammation. To test this hypothesis, we established a Tregs-specific TCTP antisense transgenic mouse model. Lower TCTP expression in Tregs than in CD4+ CD25- T cells is associated with the higher susceptibility of Tregs to apoptosis induced by IL-2 withdrawal. Overexpression of TCTP antisense in Tregs leads to decreased positive selection of CD25(high) thymic Tregs and reduced survival of peripheral Tregs, which is correlated to our previous report that TCTP antisense knocks-down TCTP protein expression and promotes apoptosis. In addition, TCTP antisense transgene confers higher susceptibility of Tregs to apoptosis induced by IL-2 withdrawal than wild-type Tregs, which can be suppressed by exogenous supply of IL-2, suggesting that IL-2 promotes Treg survival at least partially due to promoting TCTP expression. Finally, decreased expression of TCTP in Tregs aggravates experimental vascular inflammation, presumably due to increased Treg apoptosis and failure of decreased Tregs in suppressing inflammatory cells and immune cells. These results suggest that the modulation of Tregs apoptosis/survival may be used as a new therapeutic approach for inflammatory cardiovascular diseases.
