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

Linker for activation of T cells (LAT) is critical for the propagation of T-cell signals upon T-cell receptor (TCR) activation. Previous studies demonstrated that substitution of LAT lysines with arginines (2KR LAT) resulted in decreased LAT ubiquitination and elevated T-cell signaling, indicating that LAT ubiquitination is a molecular checkpoint for attenuation of T-cell signaling. To investigate the role of LAT ubiquitination in vivo, we have generated transgenic mice expressing WT and ubiquitin-defective 2KR LAT. On TCR stimulation of T cells from these mice, proximal signaling and cytokine production was elevated in 2KR versus wild-type (WT) LAT mice. Enhanced cytolytic activity as well as T-helper responses were observed on LAT expression, which were further elevated by 2KR LAT expression. Despite greater T-effector function, WT or 2KR LAT expression did not have any effect on clearance of certain pathogens or tumors. Our data support the model that lack of tumor clearance is due to increased differentiation and acquisition of effector phenotype that is associated with suboptimal immunity in an immunotherapy model. Thus, our data further reinforce the role of LAT ubiquitination in TCR signaling and uncovers a novel role for LAT in driving T-cell differentiation.
