1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Type I IFN (IFN-I) induce hundreds of antiviral genes as well as negative regulators that limit IFN-I signaling. Here, we investigate the family of 16 PARPs and find that 11 PARPs are ISGs, of which 8 PARPs inhibit IFN-I production. PARP7 is the most potent negative feedback regulator of IFN-I production. Using Parp7-/- and Parp7H532A/H532A mice, we show that PARP7 loss leads to systemic autoimmunity characterized by splenomegaly and increased autoantibodies and inflammatory cytokines. PARP7 loss also results in perivascular immune infiltration in the lung that forms tertiary lymphoid structures. Mechanistically, PARP7 inhibits multiple innate immune pathways in a cell-intrinsic and MARylation-dependent manner. PARP7 interacts with IRF3 through the catalytic domain and disrupts the IRF3:CBP/p300 transcriptional holocomplex required for IFN-I production. Irf3-/- or Irf3S1/S1 (transcription defective) or Sting-/- rescues Parp7H532A/H532A mouse autoimmunity and lung disease. Together, our study reveals physiological functions of PARP7 as a negative feedback regulator of IFN-I production that maintains immune homeostasis particularly in the lung.
