Spatial Distribution of Non-Immune Cells Expressing Glycoprotein A Repetitions Predominant in Human and Murine Metastatic Lymph Nodes.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Several types of cancer spread through the lymphatic system via the sentinel lymph nodes (LNs). Such LN-draining primary tumors, modified by tumor factors, lead to the formation of a metastatic niche associated with an increased number of Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs). These cells are expected to contribute to the elaboration of an immune-suppressive environment. Activated Tregs express glycoprotein A repetitions predominant (GARP), which binds and presents latent transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) at their surface. GARP is also expressed by other non-immune cell types poorly described in LNs. Here, we mapped GARP expression in non-immune cells in human and mouse metastatic LNs. The mining of available (human and murine) scRNA-Seq datasets revealed GARP expression by blood (BEC)/lymphatic (LEC) endothelial, fibroblastic, and perivascular cells. Consistently, through immunostaining and in situ RNA hybridization approaches, GARP was detected in and around blood and lymphatic vessels, in (αSMA+) fibroblasts, and in perivascular cells associated with an abundant matrix. Strikingly, GARP was detected in LECs forming the subcapsular sinus and high endothelial venules (HEVs), two vascular structures localized at the interface between LNs and the afferent lymphatic and blood vessels. Altogether, we here provide the first distribution maps for GARP in human and murine LNs.
