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

Given the lack of effective targeted therapeutic options for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), there is an imperative demand for innovative treatment approaches, with ferroptosis standing out as a promising direction. This study identifies HSPA6 as a key ferroptosis sensitizer in TNBC. Mechanistically, HSPA6 binds to NF-κB p65, inhibits its nuclear translocation and Ser468 phosphorylation, thereby suppressing transcription of the lipogenic enzyme FASN and downregulating phospholipid-remodeling enzymes LPCAT1/cPLA2. This dual inhibition enriches membrane phospholipids with polyunsaturated fatty acids, heightening peroxidation susceptibility and triggering ferroptosis. Concurrently, HSPA6-mediated suppression of lipogenesis depletes palmitate, thereby attenuating ANKIB1 palmitoylation and inhibiting its E3 ligase activity. This impairs K48-linked ubiquitination and degradation of HSPA6, forming a stabilizing positive feedback loop. Our study uncovers a HSPA6-p65-FASN-ANKIB1 axis linking lipid metabolism to ferroptosis, offering a novel TNBC therapeutic target.
