Inhibition of CEACAM1 expression in cytokine-activated neutrophils using JAK inhibitors.

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
objectivesCarcinoembryonic-antigen-related cell-adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) is an adhesion molecule that acts as a coinhibitory receptor in the immune system. We previously demonstrated that CEACAM1 is predominantly expressed on peripheral blood neutrophils in patients with RA. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) on cytokine-activated human neutrophils and CEACAM1 expression.
methodsPeripheral blood neutrophils were obtained from healthy subjects. Isolated neutrophils were stimulated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in the presence or absence of JAKi. The expression of CEACAM1 in peripheral blood neutrophils was analyzed by flow cytometry. Protein phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)1, STAT3, and STAT5 was assessed by western blot using phospho-specific antibodies.
resultsWe found that TNF-α-induced CEACAM1 expression was marginally suppressed after pretreatment with pan-JAK inhibitor, tofacitinib. Moreover, TNF-α induced STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation at the late stimulation phase (4 to 16 h). The expressions of CEACAM1 on neutrophils were markedly up-regulated by GM-CSF not by interleukin (IL)-6 stimulation. All JAKi inhibited GM-CSF-induced CEACAM1 expressions on neutrophils, however, the inhibitory effects of baricitinib were larger compared to those of tofacitinib or filgotinib. Moreover, CEACAM1 was marginally upregulated in interferon (IFN)-γ stimulated neutrophils. Similarly, JAKi inhibited IFN-γ-induced CEACAM1 expressions on neutrophils.
conclusionsWe demonstrated that JAKi prevent GM-CSF-induced CEACAM1 expression in neutrophils, and JAKi-induced inhibition depends on their selectivity against JAK isoforms. These findings suggest that JAKi can modulate the expression of CEACAM1 in cytokine-activated neutrophils, thereby limiting their activation.
