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

B cell acquisition and presentation of specific autoantigens (auto-Ags) are thought to play an important and complex role in autoimmunity development. We previously identified scavenger receptor A (SR-A) as an early target in altering B cell-mediated autoimmunity. SR-A is highly expressed on professional antigen-presenting cells such as macrophages (MΦs) and dendritic cells (DCs). In this study, we demonstrate that SR-A is responsible for controlling B cell interactions with DCs/MΦs to promote Ag transfer from B cells to DCs/MΦs. We established a high-throughput ELISA-based screen to identify novel SR-A inhibitors, the specificity of which was determined by dose dependence and Biacore surface plasmon resonance testing. We identified small molecule inhibitors (SMIs) able to reduce SR-A-mediated Ag transfer in human cells. In particular, the SMIs prevented SR-A-positive cells from accumulating/loading Ag over time. Furthermore, we determined that one SMI, sennoside B, can reduce SR-A-mediated capture of B cells. Finally, SMI-mediated decreases in Ag transfer or accumulation reduced T cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. These observations demonstrate that B cell-DC/MΦ interactions are conducive to promoting Ag trafficking between these cell types via SR-A. Inhibitors of SR-A may provide a novel therapeutic strategy in ameliorating autoimmune disease development.
