Comparison of CD30L and OX40L Reveals CD30L as a Promising Therapeutic Target in Atopic Dermatitis.
Article in Allergy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundBlocking IL-13 is highly efficacious in patients with Th2-biased atopic dermatitis (AD), and recent clinical data have highlighted that targeting the T cell costimulatory molecules OX40 and OX40L (TNFSF4) holds promise for future treatment of AD.
aimWe asked whether targeting another T cell costimulatory molecule, CD30L (TNFSF8), might also be a possible treatment option in AD.
methodsSingle-cell RNA-seq data from human AD skin lesions was analyzed to identify pathogenic IL-13- or IL-22-producing T cells and assess expression of CD30 and its ligand in comparison to OX40 and its ligand. Additionally, a murine model of AD with repetitive exposure to house dust mite allergen was used to compare neutralizing antibodies against CD30L with those against IL-13 or OX40L.
resultsAnalysis of several scRNA-seq datasets from skin lesions of AD patients showed that transcripts for CD30 or CD30L were found expressed with OX40 or OX40L in the primary T cell populations that also expressed mRNA for IL13 and/or IL22. Suggesting that this could be therapeutically relevant, mice treated prophylactically with a blocking CD30L antibody were protected from developing maximal allergen-induced AD features, including epidermal and dermal thickening, immune cell infiltration, and expression of AD-related genes, similar to mice treated with a blocking IL-13 antibody. Moreover, therapeutic neutralization of CD30L in mice with experimental AD also reduced all of the pathological skin lesion features to a comparable extent as blocking OX40L.
conclusionThese data suggest that targeting the CD30-CD30L axis might hold promise as a future therapeutic intervention in human AD, similar to targeting the OX40-OX40L axis.
