Small Messengers: Glioblastoma-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Modulate γδ T Lymphocytes Through a MIC-Dependent Mechanism.
Article in Biology, 2026. 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
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive and common primary brain tumor, with a median survival of less than a year after diagnosis. γδ T lymphocytes are immune cells that can migrate to tumors and induce malignant cells' apoptosis. Our previous in silico studies showed that higher γδ T-cell infiltration in GBM correlates with better patient survival, and in vitro experiments showed that GMB supernatants promote an antitumoral profile in γδ T cells. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a critical role in cell communication, particularly in tumor microenvironment modulation. Here, we studied the mechanisms responsible for γδ T lymphocyte activation by GBM-derived EVs, together with the effect of these EVs on γδ T cells from GBM patients. For that, γδ T cells were purified from peripheral blood, and EVs were obtained from U251 cell supernatants by differential centrifugation. After EV characterization, we evaluated the γδ T cell-EV interaction and γδ T-cell modulation by EVs. Results showed that EVs induced an increase in CD69 expression, cytotoxicity, and TNF-α and IFN-γ production in γδ T cells in a MIC-dependent mechanism. These results provide valuable insights for developing targeted immunotherapies in GBM patients.
