The roles of antigen-specificity, responsiveness to transforming growth factor-β and antigen-presenting cell subsets in tumour-induced expansion of regulatory T cells.
Article in Immunology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
In this study we investigated the impact of several factors on the expansion of natural regulatory T (nTreg) cells by tumours, including antigen specificity, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signalling and the antigen-presenting cell subsets responsible for expansion. We found that antigen non-specific expansion of nTreg cells is tumour cell line-dependent. Although both antigen-specific and non-specific pathways can contribute to expansion, the migration of activated nTreg cells to tumour tissues is strictly antigen-dependent. Intact TGF-β signalling on nTreg cells is also essential for tumour-induced expansion. Finally, for stimulation of resting antigen-specific CD4 T cells, CD11c(+) cells purified from tumour-draining lymph nodes were more potent than CD11b(+) cells, suggesting that dendritic cells are the key antigen-presenting cell subset involved in cross-presentation of tumour antigens. This study not only provides an in vivo system in which cross-talk between nTreg cells and tumours can be explored but also reveals novel aspects of tumour immune evasion.
