The apoplastic protein OsCPIP8 confers dual protection by inhibiting pathogenic protease and activating rice immunity.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cysteine proteases play key roles in plant immunity. In contrast, pathogen-secreted proteases contribute to destroying the immune defenses of plants and animals. However, the pathogenic mechanism remains enigmatic. Here, we find Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc)-secreted cysteine proteinase XoCysP1 interacts with rice-secreted xylanase inhibitory protein OsXIP2, which enhances rice resistance to Xoc, and promotes OsXIP2 degradation in rice apoplast. As a counterattack, the rice-secreted cysteine protease inhibitory protein OsCPIP8 associates with XoCysP1 to block XoCysP1-mediated OsXIP2 degradation and confer rice resistance. Additionally, OsCPIP8 is recognized by the receptor-like kinases OsRLK8 and OsSERK2 to trigger plant immunity. In conclusion, OsCPIP8 not only protects defense protein OsXIP2 from degradation by the pathogen but also activates rice immunity recognized by receptors. This discovery will enhance the understanding of "attack and defense" mechanisms between pathogens and hosts in the apoplast, and provide a roadmap for developing biopesticides and pathogen-informed resistant crops.
