Spatially coordinated RTK-ERK signaling dynamics shape osteosarcoma single-cell drug response in the lung microenvironment.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. 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
Purpose: Lung metastases are the primary cause of death in osteosarcoma patients and treatment response often vary due to convergence of genetic and phenotypic influences in the context of a dynamic tumor-host tissue environment. The purpose of this study was to determine how dynamic tumor- and host-driven receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)-ERK signaling interactions contribute to phenotypic drug response heterogeneity. Experimental Design: Live-cell time-lapse microscopy and data-driven dynamical modeling was used to resolve ERK activity, FOSL1/Fra-1 reporter expression, and spatiotemporal cell fate in living, biosensor-expressing osteosarcoma lung metastases Results: MCL1 inhibition induced extensive tumor-cell death; however, persistent ERK Conclusions: Tumor-host and tumor-cell-lysis-induced FGFR-ERK signaling contribute to spatiotemporally heterogeneous adaptive resistance in metastatic osteosarcoma. These data support combinatorial targeting of RTK signaling with cytotoxic or targeted agents as a strategy to block adaptive resistance and improve treatment efficacy.
