Myeloid SOCS3 Deficiency Regulates Angiogenesis via Enhanced Apoptotic Endothelial Cell Engulfment.
Article in Journal of innate immunity, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Mononuclear phagocytes, such as macrophages and microglia, are key regulators of organ homeostasis including vascularization processes. Here, we investigated the role of the suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) in myeloid cells as a regulator of mononuclear phagocyte function and their interaction with endothelial cells in the context of sprouting angiogenesis. As compared to SOCS3-sufficient counterparts, SOCS3-deficient microglia and macrophages displayed an increased phagocytic activity toward primary apoptotic endothelial cells, which was associated with an enhanced expression of the opsonin growth arrest-specific 6 (Gas6), a major prophagocytic molecule. Furthermore, we found that myeloid SOCS3 deficiency significantly reduced angiogenesis in an ex vivo mouse aortic ring assay, which could be reversed by the inhibition of the Gas6 receptor Mer. Together, SOCS3 in myeloid cells regulates the Gas6/Mer-dependent phagocytosis of endothelial cells, and thereby angiogenesis-related processes. Our findings provide novel insights into the complex crosstalk between mononuclear phagocytes and endothelial cells, and may therefore provide a new platform for the development of new antiangiogenic therapies.
