Influenza A virus inhibits TET2 expression by endoribonuclease PA-X to attenuate type I interferon signaling and promote viral replication.
Article in PLoS pathogens, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Influenza A virus (IAV) expresses several accessory proteins to limit host anti-viral restriction factors to facilitate viral replication. The Ten-Eleven Translocation 2 (TET2) is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that promotes DNA demethylation by catalyzing the oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), which plays a vital role in hematopoiesis and immunity. Here we report that TET2 is a host restriction factor that limits IAV replication. But IAV endoribonuclease PA-X is able to remove the replication restriction by binding to TET2 mRNA and driving TET2 mRNA degradation to reduce TET2 expression during infection. Genetic inactivation of TET2 markedly enhances IAV replication in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, we found that TET2 regulates demethylation and transcription of STAT1 and some interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), including ISG15, ISG20, and IFIT5, so the loss of TET2 greatly impairs type I Interferon signaling. Furthermore, we confirmed that TET2-mediated demethylation of the STAT1 gene is critical for interferon anti-viral activity. Our study demonstrates that the host TET2 is essential to the innate immune response against IAV infection.
