Multi-omics integration reveals the oncogenic role of eccDNAs in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma through STING signalling.
Article in Clinical and translational medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 6 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
backgroundExtrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs), a type of double-stranded DNAs (dsDNAs) that facilitate the activation of the DNA sensing machinery, have been implicated in the progression and prognosis of various diseases. While the roles of eccDNAs remain contentious, their significance in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has not been reported.
methodsCircular DNA sequencing (circle-seq) was used to demonstrate the expression profile of eccDNAs in DLBCL, and atomic force microscopy to validate the presence of eccDNAs. CCK-8 and scRNA-seq techniques were employed to uncover the activation of eccDNA in the STING pathway, leading to enhanced cell proliferation. Chemotherapeutic drugs were used to test the hypothesis that DNA damage induces the production of eccDNA, thereby activating the STING pathway independent of cGAS. GEO databases were used for verification of the prognosis of the eccDNA-related genes, and animal models were used to investigate the synergistic effects of DNA damage therapy in combination with STING inhibitors on anti-tumour responses.
resultsEccDNAs were widely expressed in DLBCL and associated with the prognosis of patients. Elevated abundance of eccDNAs promoted the progression of DLBCL. Chemotherapeutic drugs-induced DNA damage triggered the generation of eccDNAs, resulting in the activation of the STING signalling in a cGAS-independent manner. Moreover, inhibition of STING exerted a synergistic anti-tumour effect with cisplatin.
conclusionsEccDNAs induced by DNA damage exert an oncogenic role in DLBCL via activating the STING signalling independently of cGAS. This finding offers a rational therapeutic strategy combining chemotherapy with targeting STING. HIGHLIGHTS: EccDNAs induced by DNA damage exert an oncogenic role in DLBCL via activating the STING signalling independently of cGAS. The combined treatment of chemotherapeutic drugs with STING inhibitor significantly delayed the tumor progression, providing new insights into the therapeutic strategy for patients with DLBCL, particularly the relapsed and/or refractory (R/R) ones.
