Exosome-mediated ferroptosis in the tumor microenvironment: from molecular mechanisms to clinical application.
Review in Cell death discovery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Ferroptosis in the tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in the development, metastasis, immune escape, and drug resistance of various types of cancer. A better understanding of ferroptosis in the TME could illuminate novel aspects of this process and promote the development of targeted therapies. Compelling evidence indicates that exosomes are key mediators in regulating the TME. In this respect, it is now understood that exosomes can deliver biologically functional molecules to recipient cells, influencing cancer progression by reprogramming the metabolism of cancer cells and their surrounding stromal cells through ferroptosis. In this review, we focus on the role of exosomes in the TME and describe how they contribute to tumor reprogramming, immunosuppression, and the formation of pre-metastatic niches through ferroptosis. In addition, we highlight exosome-mediated ferroptosis as a potential target for cancer therapy and discuss strategies employing exosomes in ferroptosis treatment. Finally, we outline the current applications and challenges of targeted exosome-mediated ferroptosis therapy in tumor immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Our aim is to advance research on the link between exosomes and ferroptosis in the TME, and we pose questions to guide future studies in this area.
