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

Docetaxel resistance seriously affects its clinical application in prostate cancer (PCa). Ferroptosis is a type of iron-dependent cell death driven by lipid peroxidation. It has been recently found that ferroptosis influences various biological processes. However, the potential role of ferroptosis in docetaxel chemotherapy for PCa is still elusive. In this study, we aimed to explore whether altering the level of ferroptosis can affect docetaxel sensitivity in PCa. The results indicated that docetaxel promoted ferroptotic cell death in several PCa cells, and ferroptosis inducers, erastin, and RSL3 markedly increased the cytotoxic effect of docetaxel. Furthermore, our results showed that ferroptosis resistance was closely associated with docetaxel insensitivity in PCa-resistant cells. Erastin or RSL3 rendered resistant PCa cells susceptible to docetaxel, with elevated levels of lipid ROS and decreased protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11. Moreover, treatment with erastin and RSL3 led to significant suppression of resistant tumors, and the combination of RSL3 with docetaxel significantly halted tumor growth in vivo when compared with either drug. Taken together, our findings indicate that ferroptosis is involved in docetaxel resistance, and its inducers are promising therapeutic strategies for advanced PCa.
