Regulation of Granzymes A and B by High-Risk HPV: Impact on Immune Evasion and Carcinogenesis.
Review in Viruses, 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
The number of new cancer cases is soaring, and currently, there are 440.5 per 100,000 new cases reported every year. A quarter of these are related to human papillomavirus (HPV) infections, particularly types 16 and 18. These include oropharyngeal, anal, vaginal, and penile cancers. A critical aspect of their oncogenic potential lies in their ability to manipulate host immune responses, facilitating immune evasion and carcinogenesis. High-risk HPVs target key immune components like granzymes A and B and MHC-I, which are crucial for the elimination of virus-infected and transformed cells, thereby weakening immune surveillance. Evidence suggests that high-risk HPVs downregulate the expression of tumor suppressors, such as p53 and pRB, and the activity of these immune components, weakening CTL and NK cell responses, thus enabling persistent infection and carcinogenesis. We discuss the implications of granzyme and MHC-I dysregulation for immune evasion, tumor progression, and potential therapeutic strategies. This review further explores the regulation of granzyme A, B, and MHC-I by high-risk HPVs, focusing on how viral oncoproteins, E6 and E7, interfere with granzyme-mediated cytotoxicity and antigen presentation. The complex interplay between high-risk HPVs, granzyme A, granzyme B, and MHC-I may provide insights into novel approaches for targeting HPV-associated cancers.
