Surfaceome CRISPR activation screening uncovers ligands regulating tumor sensitivity to NK cell killing.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 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
Natural killer (NK) cell-based immunotherapies represent a promising avenue for cancer treatment due to their ability to eliminate cancer cells independently of antigen presentation and potential for "off-the-shelf" use. However, the molecular determinants governing tumor cell susceptibility to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity remain incompletely understood. Here we employed CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) screening to systematically identify cancer cell surface regulators of NK cell killing across multiple cancer types. Using a comprehensive surfaceome-focused library, we screened human and murine cancer cell lines co-cultured with NK cells, identifying both known and novel ligands that modulate NK cell cytotoxicity. Our screens revealed established factors including CD43 (encoded by
