Central role of Sigma-1 receptor in ochratoxin A-induced ferroptosis.
Article in Archives of toxicology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ochratoxin A (OTA), a secondary fungal metabolite known for its nephrotoxic effects, is prevalent in various feeds and food items. Our recent study suggests that OTA-induced nephrotoxicity is linked to the Sigma-1 receptor (Sig-1R)-mediated mitochondrial pathway apoptosis in human proximal tubule epithelial-originated kidney-2 (HK-2) cells. However, the contribution of Sig-1R to OTA-induced nephrotoxicity involving other forms of regulated cell death, such as ferroptosis, remains unexplored. In this investigation, cell viability, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, glutathione (GSH) levels, and protein expressions in HK-2 cells treated with OTA and/or Ferrostatin-1/blarcamesine hydrochloride/BD1063 dihydrochloride were assessed. The results indicate that a 24 h-treatment with 1 μM OTA significantly induces ferroptosis by inhibiting Sig-1R, subsequently promoting nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4), long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase 4 (ACSL4), arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5), autophagy protein 5 (ATG5), and ATG7, inhibiting ferritin heavy chain (FTH1), solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11/xCT), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6), and ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1), reducing GSH levels, and increasing MDA levels (P < 0.05). In conclusion, OTA induces ferroptosis by inhibiting Sig-1R, subsequently promoting ferritinophagy, inhibiting GPX4/FSP1 antioxidant systems, reducing GSH levels, and ultimately increasing lipid peroxidation levels in vitro.
