The inhibitory receptor Siglec-E controls antigen-presenting cell activation and T cell-mediated transplant rejection.
Article in Science translational medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
After transplantation, inflammation and tissue injury release danger signals that activate myeloid cells, driving adaptive immune responses and acute rejection. Current immunosuppressants primarily target T cells but inadequately control innate immunity. Regulatory signals controlling innate responses in transplantation remain elusive. The sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-E (Siglec-E, or SigE) binds sialylated ligands to suppress inflammation. In mouse heart transplants, SigE is up-regulated in graft-infiltrating myeloid cells, including dendritic cells (DCs). SigE deficiency in recipients, but not donors, accelerates acute rejection by enhancing DC activation, nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) production, thereby boosting alloreactive T cell responses. Conversely, SigE overexpression on DCs reduces activation by danger signals and their T cell allostimulatory capacity. The human homologs Siglecs-7 and -9 were up-regulated in rejecting allograft biopsies, and their higher expression correlated with improved allograft survival. Thus, SigE/7/9 is a crucial inhibitory receptor controlling antigen-presenting cell activation and T cell-mediated transplant rejection, offering therapeutic potential.
