YBX1&YBX3 as novel targets to potentiate immune checkpoint blockade response in gliomas.
Article in Neuro-oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundGlioblastoma (GBM) exhibits profound resistance to CD8⁺ T cell-mediated killing, yet the tumor-intrinsic mechanisms driving this immune evasion remain poorly defined. Our earlier study revealed Checkpoint Kinase 2 (Chek2) as the driver of CD8+ T cell resistance. This study investigates the immunomodulatory program exerted by the CHK2-YBX1&YBX3 regulatory hub.
methodsProtein-protein interactions were investigated through immunoprecipitation (IP) followed by mass spectrometry (MS) and phosphoproteomics. Single gene knockout of CHEK2, Y-box-binding protein 1 (YBX1), and Y-box-binding protein 3 (YBX3) were generated in human and mouse glioma cells. Transcriptomic and epigenetic alterations were characterized by bulk RNA sequencing and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq). Single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics analysis were performed to evaluate CHK2-YBX1&YBX3 related phenotype in human GBM tumors. In vivo survival studies were conducted to assess the therapeutic potential of CHK2-YBX1&YBX3 degradation and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB).
resultsCHK2, YBX1, and YBX3 exhibited reciprocal positive regulation and depletion of any of these genes resulted in derepression of pro-inflammatory gene expression. Pharmacological inhibition with the drug targeting YBX1 led to degradation of the CHK2-YBX1&YBX3 hub accompanied by enhanced antigen presentation and antigen-specific CD8⁺ T cell proliferation. Combination therapy targeting CHK2-YBX1&YBX3 hub and ICB significantly improved survival in preclinical glioma models.
conclusionsThese findings define a novel glioma-intrinsic immunosuppressive program and proposes targeting the CHK2-YBX1&YBX3 hub to potentiate response to ICB in glioma.
