Non-invasive imaging with ICOS-targeting monoclonal antibody for preclinical diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis in a humanized mouse model.
Article in Journal of translational medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundActivated T cells play a pivotal role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis, and imaging of activated T cells may provide a non-invasive tool for RA detection. Here, we first developed an optical probe targeting human inducible T cell co-stimulator (ICOS) and tested its capacity in RA diagnosis by capturing ICOS
methodsThe humanized arthritis model, Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells- adjuvant induced arthritis (HuPBMC-AIA) was established, and flow cytometry and immunofluorescence were employed to determine ICOS expression in huPBMC-AIA model. Anti-human ICOS monoclonal antibody (mAb) was conjugated to Cy7 via NHS ester amine reaction. A cell uptake study was used to confirm the specificity of Cy7-ICOS mAb to activated T cells. 4-view near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging study was performed to test Cy7-ICOS mAb in detecting RA in vivo.
findingsICOS was confirmed as an indicator of RA pathogenesis via RNA-seq, flow cytometry and immunofluorescence data. An in-vitro cellular uptake study validated the specificity of Cy7-ICOS mAb to activated T cells. Cy7-ICOS mAb could detect ICOS
conclusionIn this study, we first developed an optical imaging probe targeting human ICOS, Cy7-ICOS mAb. The 4-view NIRF imaging with Cy7-ICOS mAb could detect pathogenic ICOS
