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

Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), a subtype of esophageal carcinoma, is a severe health problem associated with high death rate and poor prognosis. Immunotherapy has proven to be effective in many solid tumors, including EAC, but immune escape blocks its effectiveness. Thus, we explored the mechanisms and functional role of c-Myb in immune escape of EAC cells. Clinical EAC tissues were collected for determining the expression of c-Myb, speckled POZ protein (SPOP), and miR-145-5p. Functional assays were then performed to detect the interactions between c-Myb and SPOP as well as between SPOP and miR-145-5p. EAC cell invasion and migration were assessed. Next, T cells were sorted and cocultured with EAC cells with different treatments followed by detection of T-cell viability. In addition, a mouse model of EAC was constructed for relevant in vivo assays. c-Myb and miR-145-5p were highly expressed and SPOP had low expressions in EAC. c-Myb activated the transcription of miR-145-5p, which in turn targeted SPOP. Further, SPOP accelerated the ubiquitination of PD-L1 to enhance its expression. Overexpression of PD-L1 suppressed T-cell functions and promoted proliferative and migrative abilities of EAC cells to induce immune escape. The above findings were also confirmed in the ECA mouse model in vivo. Our findings uncovered that c-Myb can promote the immune escape of EAC cells by favoring the transcription of miR-145-5p and inhibiting SPOP-dependent ubiquitination and degradation of PD-L1, thus, presenting new target for EAC adjunct therapy.
