Antibacterial and Immunosuppressive Effects of OPS-2071, a Candidate Therapy for Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

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
backgroundInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Although many types of drug are used, clinical outcomes are still unsatisfactory. Previous studies have suggested that intestinal bacteria are involved in the pathogenesis of IBD. Accordingly, in an IBD model we evaluated the therapeutic effects of OPS-2071, a low-absorption quinolone antibacterial agent indicated for intestinal infection, and investigated its mechanism of action.
methodsThe therapeutic effects of OPS-2071 and comparison therapies were evaluated using naive CD4 + T cell-transfer IBD model mice. In vitro inhibition of LPS-induced TNF-α production and inhibitory effects on T cell responses stimulated using anti-CD3/CD28 antibody-loaded beads were evaluated using mouse splenocytes and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In addition, in vitro activities against bacteria implicated in IBD pathogenesis were tested.
resultsOPS-2071 dose-dependently decreased both colonic weight/length ratio and the colitis histological score as compared with the vehicle group. The therapeutic effect of OPS-2071 was equivalent to that of anti-IL-12/23 (p40) antibody. In vitro, OPS-2071 suppressed TNF-α production induced by LPS stimulation and T cell responses in a dose-dependent manner. At high concentrations, these effects were comparable to those of existing immunosuppressive agents, such as prednisolone, in both mouse and human cells. OPS-2071 also showed antibacterial activity against IBD-related bacteria.
conclusionsOur results suggest that OPS-2071 had both immunosuppressive and antibacterial effects. This dual effect makes OPS-2071 a unique and promising candidate for IBD.
