Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Ligament Tissue Transport Interleukin-17A to Mediate Ligament-To-Bone Crosstalk in Ankylosing Spondylitis.

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
Pathological new bone formation is a critical feature of the progression of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and spine ankylosis is a distinctive feature of this condition. Ligaments are the primary regions of pathological new bone formation in AS. Here, it is demonstrated that ligament tissue-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their interleukin-17A (IL-17A) cargo mediate the communication between the tissue and other cells. The investigation revealed that IL-17A in EVs can activate the JAK-STAT3 pathway, thereby stimulating the expression of MMP14 in AS ligament. Overexpression of MMP14 can lead to changes in the cytoskeleton and mechanical signaling of mesenchymal stem cells and other cells. These alterations in cellular cytoskeleton and mechanical signaling at ligament sites in patients with AS or in stem cells treated with EVs can result in pathological new bone formation. Finally, inhibiting IL-17A activity and EV endocytosis effectively controlled inflammation and pathological new bone formation. Overall, these data suggest that ligament-derived EVs and the enclosed IL-17A have a potential role in driving pathological new bone formation in AS, and targeting EVs may therefore emerge as a novel approach to delaying ectopic ossification in AS.
