Coenzyme A protects against ferroptosis via CoAlation of thioredoxin reductase 2.
Article in Research square, 2024. 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
The Cystine-xCT transporter-Glutathione (GSH)-GPX4 axis is the canonical pathway to protect against ferroptosis. While not required for ferroptosis-inducing compounds (FINs) targeting GPX4, FINs targeting the xCT transporter require mitochondria and its lipid peroxidation to trigger ferroptosis. However, the mechanism underlying the difference between these FINs is still unknown. Given that cysteine is also required for coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis, here we show that CoA supplementation specifically prevents ferroptosis induced by xCT inhibitors but not GPX4 inhibitors. We find that, auranofin, a thioredoxin reductase inhibitor, abolishes the protective effect of CoA. We also find that CoA availability determines the enzymatic activity of thioredoxin reductase, but not thioredoxin. Importantly, the mitochondrial thioredoxin system, but not the cytosolic thioredoxin system, determines CoA-mediated ferroptosis inhibition. Our data show that the CoA regulates the
