Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Recent results highlight the role of increased TGF-β signaling in intrinsic resistance to checkpoint blockade therapy.

    “Recent results in fact highlight the role of increased TGF-β signaling in intrinsic resistance to checkpoint blockade therapy21,23,38,71,145.”

    From TGFβ biology in cancer progression and immunotherapy (2021) · cites this paper as [71]

  • An antibody was developed that binds the TGF-β1 prosegment and prevents dissociation of mature TGF-β1 from LAP, thus keeping TGF-β1 latent without affecting TGF-β2 or TGF-β3 activation.

    “Finally, an antibody was developed that binds the TGF-β1 prosegment and prevents dissociation of mature TGF-β1 from LAP, thus keeping TGF-β1 latent without affecting TGF-β2 or TGF-β3 activation71.”

    From TGFβ biology in cancer progression and immunotherapy (2021) · cites this paper as [71]

  • In contrast to treatment with the TβRI kinase inhibitor LY2109761 or a pan-TGF-β antibody, antibody-mediated repression of TGF-β1 activation did not result in cardiac valvulopathies in a rat toxicity model.

    “However, in contrast to treatment with the TβRI kinase inhibitor LY2109761 or a pan-TGF-β antibody, antibody-mediated repression of TGF-β1 activation did not result in cardiac valvulopathies in a rat toxicity model71.”

    From TGFβ biology in cancer progression and immunotherapy (2021) · cites this paper as [71]

  • TGF-β released and activated by cancer cells, stromal fibroblasts, and/or immune cells dampens anti-tumor immunity and responses to immunotherapeutics through direct and indirect mechanisms.

    “An underlying and predominant rationale focuses on the ability of TGF-β released and activated by cancer cells, stromal fibroblasts and/or immune cells to dampen anti-tumor immunity and responses to immunotherapeutics through direct and indirect mechanisms21,23,71,145,353,354.”

    From TGFβ biology in cancer progression and immunotherapy (2021) · cites this paper as [71]

  • Treatments combining TGF-β inhibition with immune checkpoint inhibition are likely to increase therapeutic efficacy.

    “treatments that combine TGF-β inhibition with immune checkpoint inhibition are likely to increase therapeutic efficacy21,23,71,145,346,362.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
