1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Ferroptosis is caused by the iron-mediated accumulation of lipid peroxidation, which is distinct from apoptosis and necroptosis. Necrostatin-1 inhibits receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) to initiate necroptosis; it also inhibits indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) to regulate tumor immunity. However, few studies have examined the off-target effect of necrostatin-1 on the ferroptosis pathway. The present study examined whether necrostatin-1 could interrupt ferroptosis induced by system xc- inhibitors (sulfasalazine and erastin) and a glutathione peroxidase 4 inhibitor (RSL3) in Huh7 and SK-HEP-1 cells. Necrostatin-1 completely prevented decreases in cell viability induced by sulfasalazine and erastin; it partially blunted decreases in cell viability induced by RSL3. Necrostatin-1, ferrostatin-1, and deferoxamine repressed sulfasalazine-provoked membrane permeabilization, as detected by 7-aminoactinomycin D staining and lipid peroxidation measured using a C11-BODIPY probe. However, other RIPK1 inhibitors (necrostatin-1s and GSK2982772) and an IDO inhibitor (1-methyl-D-tryptophan) did not recover the decrease in cell viability induced by sulfasalazine. Necrostatin-1 potentiated sulfasalazine-induced expression of xCT, a catalytic subunit of system xc- in these cells. These results demonstrated that necrostatin-1 blocked ferroptosis through a mechanism independent from RIPK1 and IDO inhibition in Huh7 and SK-HEP-1 cells, indicating that its antioxidant activity should be considered when using necrostatin-1 as a RIPK1 inhibitor.
