Blockade of CCR5 and CXCR3 attenuates murine acute graft-versus-host disease through modulating donor-derived T-cell distribution and function.

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
Lymphocyte trafficking via chemokine receptors such as C-C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) and CXCR3 plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). Our previous studies showed that the addition of CCR5 or CXCR3 antagonists could only slightly alleviate the development of aGVHD. Given the specificity of T lymphocytes bearing CXCR3 and CCR5, we investigated whether combined CCR5 and CXCR3 blockade could further attenuate murine aGVHD. A mouse model of aGVHD was established to assess the efficacy of CCR5 and/or CXCR3 blockade on the development of aGVHD. The distribution of lymphocytes was calculated by quantification of immunostaining cells. The immunomodulatory effect on T cells was assessed by evaluating T-cell proliferation, viability, and differentiation. Using the murine allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation model, we demonstrated that blockade of both CCR5 and CXCR3 could efficiently alleviate the development of aGVHD. Further investigation on the immune mechanisms for this prophylactic effect showed that more T cells were detained into secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs), which may lead to reduced infiltration of T cells into GVHD target organs. Our study also showed that T cells detained in SLOs dampened the activation, suppressed the polarization toward T helper type 1 (Th1) and T cytotoxic type 1 (Tc1) cells, and induced the production of Treg cells. These data suggest that concurrent blockade of CCR5 and CXCR3 attenuates murine aGVHD through modulating donor-derived T-cell distribution and function, and this might be applicable for aGVHD prophylaxis in clinical settings.
