Taking the STING out of radiotherapy: STING checkpoints mediate radiation resistance.

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
The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase/stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS/STING) pathway is a critical driver of type I interferon (IFN-I) and antitumor CD8+ T cell responses after radiotherapy (RT). In this issue of the JCI, two reports describe mechanisms that restrained STING signaling and abrogated antitumor immunity after RT. Wen, Wang, and colleagues discovered that IFN-I mediated the induction of YTHDF1, an RNA N6-methyladenosine-binding protein, in DCs after RT promoted cathepsin-mediated STING degradation. Zhang, Deng, Wu, and colleagues discovered that hemeoxygenase 1 (HO-1) was induced and proteolytically cleaved after RT to suppress cGAS cytoplasmic export as well as STING oligomerization at the ER. Blocking the STING-suppressive functions of YTHDF1 and HO-1, respectively, improved antitumor T cell immunity and tumor control after RT. Together, these studies support the development of clinical avenues to sustain STING signaling during RT, a standard treatment for approximately 50% of malignancies.
