Deglycosylation of SLAMF7 in breast cancers enhances phagocytosis.
Article in American journal of cancer research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
N-linked glycosylation of proteins is one of the post-translational modifications (PTMs) that shield tumor antigens from immune attack. Signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family 7 (SLAMF7) suppresses cancer cell phagocytosis and is an ideal target under clinical development. PTM of SLAMF7, however, remains less understood. In this study, we investigated the role of N-glycans on SLAMF7 in breast cancer progression. We identified seven N-linked glycosylation motifs on SLAMF7, which are majorly occupied by complex structures. Evolutionally conserved N98 residue is enriched with high mannose and sialylated glycans. Hyperglycosylated SLAMF7 was associated with STT3A expression in breast cancer cells. Inhibition of STT3A by a small molecule inhibitor, N-linked glycosylation inhibitor-1 (NGI-1), reduced glycosylation of SLAMF7, resulting in enhancing antibody affinity and phagocytosis. To provide an on-target effect, we developed an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) by coupling the anti-SLAMF7 antibody with NGI-1. Deglycosylation of SLAMF7 increases antibody recognition and promotes macrophage engulfment of breast cancer cells. Our work suggests deglycosylation by ADC is a potential strategy to enhance the response of immunotherapeutic agents.
