1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

Lupus is an Ab-mediated autoimmune disease. One of the potential contributors to the development of systemic lupus erythematosus is a defect in naturally occurring CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells. Thus, the generation of inducible regulatory T cells that can control autoantibody responses is a potential avenue for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus. We have found that nasal administration of anti-CD3 mAb attenuated lupus development as well as arrested ongoing lupus in two strains of lupus-prone mice. Nasal anti-CD3 induced a CD4(+)CD25(-)latency-associated peptide (LAP)(+) regulatory T cell that secreted high levels of IL-10 and suppressed disease in vivo via IL-10- and TFG-beta-dependent mechanisms. Disease suppression also occurred following adoptive transfer of CD4(+)CD25(-)LAP(+) regulatory T cells from nasal anti-CD3-treated animals to lupus-prone mice. Animals treated with nasal anti-CD3 had less glomerulonephritis and diminished levels of autoantibodies as measured by both ELISA and autoantigen microarrays. Nasal anti-CD3 affected the function of CD4(+)ICOS(+)CXCR5(+) follicular helper T cells that are required for autoantibody production. CD4(+)ICOS(+)CXCR5(+) follicular helper T cells express high levels of IL-17 and IL-21 and these cytokines were down-regulated by nasal anti-CD3. Our results demonstrate that nasal anti-CD3 induces CD4(+)CD25(-)LAP(+) regulatory T cells that suppress lupus in mice and that it is associated with down-regulation of T cell help for autoantibody production.
