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.

2 · The registry

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

A major emphasis of our studies has been on developing a better understanding of how and why the skin serves as a target for immune reactions as well as how the skin evades becoming a target for destruction. For these studies we developed transgenic mice that express a membrane-tethered form of a model self antigen, chicken ovalbumin (mOVA), under the control of a keratin 14 (K14) promoter. K14-mOVA transgenic mice that express OVA mRNA and protein in the epithelia have been assessed for their immune responsiveness to OVA and are being used as targets for T cells obtained from OT-1 transgenic mice whose CD8+ T cells carry a Vα2/Vβ5-transgenic T cell receptor with specificity for the OVA(257-264)-peptides (OVAp) in association with class I MHC antigens. Some of the K14-mOVA transgenic mice develop a graft-versus-host-like disease (GvHD) when the OT-1 cells are injected while others appear to be tolerant to the OT-1 cells. We found that γc cytokines, especially IL-15, determine whether autoimmunity or tolerance ensues in K14-mOVA Tg mice. We also developed transgenic mice that express soluble OVA under the control of a K14 promoter (K14-sOVA) that die within 5-8 days after adoptive transfer of OT-1 cells and identified these mice as a model for more acute GvHD-like reactions. Spontaneous autoimmunity occurs when these K14-sOVA mice are crossed with the OT-I mice. In contrast, we found that preventive or therapeutic OVAp injections induced a dose-dependent increase in survival. In this review the characterization of 5 strains of K14-OVATg mice and underlying mechanisms involved in autoimmune reactions in these Tg mice are discussed. We also describe a strategy to break tolerance and describe how the autoimmunity can be obviated using OVAp. Finally, a historical overview of using transgenic mice to assess the mechanisms of tolerance is also provided.
