Targeting Cancer Cell Ferroptosis to Reverse Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy Resistance.
Review in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 38 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
In recent years, cancer therapies using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have achieved meaningful success, with patients with advanced tumors presenting longer survival times and better quality of life. However, several patients still do not exhibit good clinical outcomes for ICI therapy due to low sensitivity. To solve this, researchers have focused on identifying the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to ICI therapy. ICI therapy induces apoptosis, which is the most frequent regulated cell death (RCD) but lacks immunogenicity and is regarded as an "immune silent" cell death. Ferroptosis, a unique type of non-apoptotic-RCD, has been preliminarily identified as an immunogenic cell death (ICD), stimulating tumor-antigen-specific immune responses and augmenting anti-tumor immune effects. However, ferroptosis has rarely been used in clinical practice. Present evidence strongly supports that the interferon-γ signaling pathway is at the crossroads of ICI therapy and ferroptosis. TYRO3, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is highly expressed in tumors and can induce anti-programmed cell death (PD)-ligand 1/PD-1 therapy resistance by limiting tumoral ferroptosis. Therefore, in this review, we summarize the clinical practice and effects of ICI therapy in various cancers. We also provide an overview of ferroptosis and report the molecular connections between cancer cell ferroptosis and ICI therapy, and discuss the possibility to reverse ICI therapy resistance by inducing cancer cell ferroptosis.
