RBM12 drives PD-L1-mediated immune evasion in hepatocellular carcinoma by increasing JAK1 mRNA translation.

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
Immunosuppression characterizes the tumour microenvironment in HCC, and recent studies have implicated RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in the development of HCC. Here, we conducted a screen and identified RBM12 as a key protein that increased the expression of PD-L1, thereby driving immune evasion in HCC. Furthermore, RBM12 was found to be significantly upregulated in HCC tissues and was associated with a poor prognosis for HCC patients. Through various molecular assays and high-throughput screening, we determined that RBM12 could directly bind to the JAK1 mRNA via its 4th-RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain and recruit EIF4A2 through its 2nd-RRM domain, enhancing the distribution of ribosomes on JAK1 mRNA, which promotes the translation of JAK1 and the subsequent upregulation of its expression. As a result, the activated JAK1/STAT1 pathway transcriptionally upregulates PD-L1 expression, facilitating immune evasion in HCC. In summary, our findings provide insights into the significant contribution of RBM12 to immune evasion in HCC, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in the future. This graphical abstract shows that elevated expression of RBM12 in HCC can augment PD-L1-mediated tumour immune evasion by increasing the efficiency of JAK1 mRNA translation.
