Sulfasalazine promotes ferroptosis through AKT-ERK1/2 and P53-SLC7A11 in rheumatoid arthritis.

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
objectiveFerroptosis has been reported to play a role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Sulfasalazine, a common clinical treatment for ankylosing spondylitis, also exerts pathological influence on the progression of rheumatoid arthritis including the induced ferroptosis of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs), which result in the perturbated downstream signaling and the development of RA. The aim of this study was to investigate the underlying mechanism so as to provide novel insight for the treatment of RA.
methodsCCK-8 and Western blotting were used to assess the effect of sulfasalazine on FLSs. A collagen-induced arthritis mouse model was constructed by the injection of collagen and Freund's adjuvant, and then, mice were treated with sulfasalazine from day 21 after modeling. The synovium was extracted and ferroptosis was assessed by Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining.
resultsThe results revealed that sulfasalazine promotes ferroptosis. Compared with the control group, the expression levels of ferroptosis-related proteins such as glutathione peroxidase 4, ferritin heavy chain 1, and solute carrier family 7, member 11 (SLC7A11) were lower in the experimental group. Furthermore, deferoxamine inhibited ferroptosis induced by sulfasalazine. Sulfasalazine-promoted ferroptosis was related to a decrease in ERK1/2 and the increase of P53.
conclusionsSulfasalazine promoted ferroptosis of FLSs in rheumatoid arthritis, and the PI3K-AKT-ERK1/2 pathway and P53-SLC7A11 pathway play an important role in this process.
