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

Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase gamma (PI3Kγ) is a leukocyte-specific lipid kinase with signaling function downstream of G protein-coupled receptors to regulate cell trafficking, but its role in T cells remains unclear. To investigate the requirement of PI3Kγ kinase activity in T-cell function, we studied T cells from PI3Kγ kinase-dead knock-in (PI3Kγ(KD/KD)) mice expressing the kinase-inactive PI3Kγ protein. We show that CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells from PI3Kγ(KD/KD) mice exhibit impaired TCR/CD28-mediated activation that could not be rescued by exogenous IL-2. The defects in proliferation and cytokine production were also evident in naïve and memory T cells. Analysis of signaling events in activated PI3Kγ(KD/KD) T cells revealed a reduction in phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT) and ERK1/2, a decrease in lipid raft formation, and a delay in cell cycle progression. Furthermore, PI3Kγ(KD/KD) CD4(+) T cells displayed compromised differentiation toward Th1, Th2, Th17, and induced Treg cells. PI3Kγ(KD/KD) mice also exhibited an impaired response to immunization and a reduced delayed-type hypersensitivity to Ag challenge. These findings indicate that PI3Kγ kinase activity is required for optimal T-cell activation and differentiation, as well as for mounting an efficient T cell-mediated immune response. The results suggest that PI3Kγ kinase inhibitors could be beneficial in reducing the undesirable immune response in autoimmune diseases.
