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

Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cys-LTs) can mediate Th2 immunity to the house dust mite, Dermatophagoides farinae, via the type 1 receptor CysLT(1)R on dendritic cells (DCs). However, the role of the homologous type 2 receptor CysLT(2)R in Th2 immunity is unknown. D. farinae sensitization and challenge of CysLT(2)R-deficient mice showed a marked augmentation of eosinophilic pulmonary inflammation, serum IgE, and Th2 cytokines. Wild-type (WT) mice sensitized by adoptive transfer of D. farinae-pulsed CysLT(2)R-deficient bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) also had a marked increase in D. farinae-elicited eosinophilic lung inflammation and Th2 cytokines in restimulated hilar nodes. This response was absent in mice sensitized with D. farinae-pulsed BMDCs lacking leukotriene C(4) synthase (LTC(4)S), CysLT(1)R, or both CysLT(2)R/LTC(4)S, suggesting that CysLT(2)R negatively regulates LTC(4)S- and CysLT(1)R-dependent DC-mediated sensitization. CysLT(2)R-deficient BMDCs had increased CysLT(1)R-dependent LTD(4)-induced ERK phosphorylation, whereas N-methyl LTC(4) activation of CysLT(2)R on WT BMDCs reduced such signaling. Activation of endogenously expressed CysLT(1)R and CysLT(2)R occurred over an equimolar range of LTD(4) and N-methyl LTC(4), respectively. Although the baseline expression of cell surface CysLT(1)R was not increased on CysLT(2)R-deficient BMDCs, it was upregulated at 24 h by a pulse of D. farinae, compared with WT or CysLT(2)R/LTC(4)S-deficient BMDCs. Importantly, treatment with N-methyl LTC(4) reduced D. farinae-induced CysLT(1)R expression on WT BMDCs. Thus, CysLT(2)R negatively regulates the development of cys-LT-dependent Th2 pulmonary inflammation by inhibiting both CysLT(1)R signaling and D. farinae-induced LTC(4)S-dependent cell surface expression of CysLT(1)R on DCs. Furthermore, these studies highlight how the biologic activity of cys-LTs can be tightly regulated by competition between these endogenously expressed receptors.
