Induction of Heme Oxygenase-1 Modifies the Systemic Immunity and Reduces Atherosclerotic Lesion Development in ApoE Deficient Mice.

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
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has been reported to protect against oxidation and inflammation in atherosclerosis. It remains unclear how the immune system participates in the cytoprotective function of HO-1 in the context of atherosclerosis. In this study, we attempted to investigate the potential effect of a HO-1 inducer, hemin, and a HO-1 inhibitor, Tin-protoporphyrin IX (SnPP), on the progression of atherosclerosis in ApoE deficient mice. Using mass cytometry, 15 immune cell populations and 29 T cell sub-clusters in spleen and peripheral blood were thoroughly analyzed after hemin or SnPP treatment. SnPP elevated risk factors of atherosclerosis, whereas hemin reduced them. In-depth analysis showed that hemin significantly modified the immune system in both spleen and peripheral blood. Hemin increased dendritic (DC) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), but decreased natural killer (NK) cells. An opposite effect was observed with SnPP treatment in terms of NK cells. NK cells and MDSCs were positively and negatively correlated with total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein, respectively. Moreover, the T cell profiles were significantly reshaped by hemin, whereas only minor changes were observed with SnPP. Several hemin-modulated T cell clusters associated with atherosclerosis were also identified. In summary, we have unraveled an important regulatory role for HO-1 pathway in immune cell regulation and atherosclerosis. Our finding suggests that modulating HO-1 signaling represents a potential therapeutic strategy against atherosclerosis.
