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

backgroundNecroptosis of macrophages is a necessary element in reinforcing intrapulmonary inflammation during acute lung injury (ALI). However, the molecular mechanism that sparks macrophage necroptosis is still unclear. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is a pattern recognition receptor expressed broadly on monocytes/macrophages. The influence of TREM-1 on the destiny of macrophages in ALI requires further investigation.

methodsTREM-1 decoy receptor LR12 was used to evaluate whether the TREM-1 activation induced necroptosis of macrophages in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI in mice. Then we used an agonist anti-TREM-1 Ab (Mab1187) to activate TREM-1 in vitro. Macrophages were treated with GSK872 (a RIPK3 inhibitor), Mdivi-1 (a DRP1 inhibitor), or Rapamycin (an mTOR inhibitor) to investigate whether TREM-1 could induce necroptosis in macrophages, and the mechanism of this process.

resultsWe first observed that the blockade of TREM-1 attenuated alveolar macrophage (AlvMs) necroptosis in mice with LPS-induced ALI. In vitro, TREM-1 activation induced necroptosis of macrophages. mTOR has been previously linked to macrophage polarization and migration. We discovered that mTOR had a previously unrecognized function in modulating TREM-1-mediated mitochondrial fission, mitophagy, and necroptosis. Moreover, TREM-1 activation promoted DRP1

conclusionIn this study, we reported that TREM-1 acted as a necroptotic stimulus of AlvMs, fueling inflammation and aggravating ALI. We also provided compelling evidence suggesting that mTOR-dependent mitochondrial fission is the underpinning of TREM-1-triggered necroptosis and inflammation. Therefore, regulation of necroptosis by targeting TREM-1 may provide a new therapeutic target for ALI in the future.
