Cancer cells restrict immunogenicity of retrotransposon expression via distinct mechanisms.
Article in Immunity, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
To thrive, cancer cells must navigate acute inflammatory signaling accompanying oncogenic transformation, such as via overexpression of repeat elements. We examined the relationship between immunostimulatory repeat expression, tumor evolution, and the tumor-immune microenvironment. Integration of multimodal data from a cohort of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients revealed expression of specific Alu repeats predicted to form double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) and trigger retinoic-acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like-receptor (RLR)-associated type-I interferon (IFN) signaling. Such Alu-derived dsRNAs also anti-correlated with pro-tumorigenic macrophage infiltration in late stage tumors. We defined two complementary pathways whereby PDAC may adapt to such anti-tumorigenic signaling. In mutant TP53 tumors, ORF1p from long interspersed nuclear element (LINE)-1 preferentially binds Alus and decreases their expression, whereas adenosine deaminases acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1) editing primarily reduces dsRNA formation in wild-type TP53 tumors. Depletion of either LINE-1 ORF1p or ADAR1 reduced tumor growth in vitro. The fact that tumors utilize multiple pathways to mitigate immunostimulatory repeats implies the stress from their expression is a fundamental phenomenon to which PDAC, and likely other tumors, adapt.
