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

backgroundHuman decidua parietalis mesenchymal stem/multipotent stromal cells (DPMSCs) have unique phenotypic and functional properties that make them promising candidates for cell-based therapy. Here, we investigated DPMSC interaction with natural killer (NK) cells, and the effects of this interaction on NK cell phenotypic characteristics and functional activities.

methodsDPMSCs isolated from the decidua parietalis of human fetal membranes were cultured with interleukin (IL)-2-activated and IL-2-unactivated NK cells isolated from healthy human peripheral blood. NK cell proliferation and cytolytic activities were then examined using functional assays. NK cell expression of receptors mediating the cytolytic activity against DPMSCs, and the mechanism underlying this effect on DPMSCs, were also examined using flow cytometry and light microscopy, respectively.

resultsDPMSCs stimulated IL-2-induced proliferation of resting NK cells and the proliferation of activated NK cells. Moreover, IL-2-activated NK cells, but not freshly isolated NK cells, efficiently lysed DPMSCs. The induction of this NK cell cytolytic activity against DPMSCs was mediated by the activating NK cell receptors NKG2D, CD69, NKp30, and NKp44. However, DPMSCs showed a direct induction of NK cell cytolytic activity through CD69. We also found that DPMSCs expressed the ligands for these activating NK cell receptors including Nectin-2, ULBP-2, MICA, and MICB. Although DPMSCs expressed HLA class I molecules, they were susceptible to lysis by NK cells, suggesting that HLA class I antigens do not play a significant role in NK cell cytolytic action. In addition, DPMSCs did not inhibit NK cell cytolytic activity against cancer cells. Importantly, DPMSCs significantly increased NK expression of inflammatory molecules with anticancer activities.

conclusionsWe conclude that DPMSCs have potential for therapeutic application in cancer therapy, but not in transplantation or immunological diseases.
