Epigenomic landscapes define differential Janus kinases inhibitor sensitivity in IFN-γ-primed human macrophages.

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
Janus kinases (JAK) mediate signaling pathways of multiple cytokines, including interferon-γ (IFN-γ), which plays a pivotal role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Although JAK inhibitors (JAKi) have demonstrated efficacy for RA, their molecular effects on macrophages remain incompletely understood. We investigate the impact of JAKi on IFN-γ-induced gene expression in human macrophages, uncovering that JAKi selectively modulates only a subset of IFN-γ-induced genes. Integrated transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses demonstrate that JAKi effectively inhibits IFN-γ signature genes associated with IRF1-STAT1-dependent accessible chromatin regions. However, genes regulated by AP-1 and C/EBP remain insensitive to JAKi and overlap significantly with TNF-induced genes. Single-cell analysis of RA patient samples identifies macrophage subpopulations with variable JAKi sensitivity. Certain JAKi-insensitive genes in IFN-γ-primed macrophages are suppressed by JNK inhibitors. Our findings elucidate JAKi responsiveness mechanisms through IFN-γ-induced epigenomic remodeling, providing insights into inflammatory regulation in RA and suggesting strategies to overcome JAKi resistance.
