Role of c-Myc activating the transcription of PD-L1 in immune escape during benzene-induced malignant transformation of human lymphoblasts.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Benzene is a widely used industrial raw material. Benzene and its metabolite hydroquinone are believed to be related to the occurrence of benzene-related leukemia. Epidemiological studies have revealed the link between benzene exposure and blood system tumors, but the mechanism of benzene exposure and blood system tumor immune escape has not been fully confirmed. Experiments are divided into in vitro experiments and in vivo experiments. In the in vivo experimental part, we constructed an animal model of chronic benzene exposure and a C57BL/6 tumor-like animal model. Through qRT-PCR, Western blot and Tumor formation experiment in C57BL/6 mice, we verified that chronic benzene exposure caused malignant lesions in mice. In in vitro experiments, we built an in vitro malignant transformation model. Through molecular biology experiments 9/3/20259/3/20259/3/20259/3/2025such as CCK-8, soft agar cloning, and Transwell experiments were conducted to assess the malignant transformation potential of HQ19 and PBS19, cell vitality, malignant transformation potential and malignant migration ability were detected respectively. In order to study whether the benzene metabolite HQ activates c-Myc transcription activity, we used experiments such as double fluoresin enzyme reporting genes to confirm that c-Myc directly binds to PD-L1 promoter to drive its transcription. This study confirmed that in the process of HQ induced malignant transformation of human lymphocytes TK6, c-Myc regulates the molecular mechanism of PD-L1-mediated immune escape through transcription.
