Chitosan Nanoparticles Strengthen Vγ9Vδ2 T-Cell Cytotoxicity Through Upregulation Of Killing Molecules And Cytoskeleton Polarization.
Article in International journal of nanomedicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundDuring the past few years, immune cell therapy for malignant cancer has benefited a considerable amount of patients worldwide. As one of several promising candidates for immunotherapy, Vγ9Vδ2 γδ T cells have many unique biological advantages, such as non-MHC restriction and have been noted as the earliest source of IFN-γ. However, potentiating anti-tumor functions of γδ T cells has become of particular interest to researchers studying γδ T cell applications. PURPOSE: In this study, we proposed a nanotechnology-based methodology for strengthening γδ T cell functions.
methodsAs a type of reliable, biocompatible material, chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs) were used to enhance anti-tumor immunity of γδ T cells.
resultsFirst, we found that the size of prepared CSNPs distributed 50 to 100 nm, and that CSNPs had optimal immunocompatibility. Then, we observed that CSNPs could induce α-tubulin cytoskeleton polarization and rearrangement, correlating with a higher killing ability of γδ T cells. Furthermore, we revealed that CSNPs could enhance Vγ9Vδ2 T cell anti-tumor functions by upregulating killing of related receptors, including NKG2D, CD56, FasL, and perforin secretion.
conclusionOur work provided evidence of application for CSNPs based bio-carrier in immunotherapy. More importantly, we proposed a new strategy for enhancing γδ T cell anti-tumor activity using nanobiomaterial, which could benefit future clinical applications of γδ T cells.
