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

Boosting the metabolism of immune cells while restricting cancer cell metabolism is challenging. Herein, we report that using biomaterials for the controlled delivery of succinate metabolite to phagocytic immune cells activates them and modulates their metabolism in the presence of metabolic inhibitors. In young immunocompetent mice, polymeric microparticles, with succinate incorporated in the backbone, induced strong pro-inflammatory anti-melanoma responses. Administration of poly(ethylene succinate) (PES MP)-based vaccines and glutaminase inhibitor to young immunocompetent mice with aggressive and large, established B16F10 melanoma tumors increased their survival three-fold, a result of increased cytotoxic T cells expressing RORγT (Tc17). Mechanistically, PES MPs directly modulate glutamine and glutamate metabolism, upregulate succinate receptor SUCNR1, activate antigen presenting cells through and HIF-1alpha, TNFa and TSLP-signaling pathways, and are dependent on alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase for their activity, which demonstrates correlation of succinate delivery and these pathways. Overall, our findings suggest that immunometabolism-modifying PES MP strategies provide an approach for developing robust cancer immunotherapies.
