Arginine methyltransferase PRMT1 promotes ferroptosis through EGR1/GLS2 axis in sepsis-related acute lung injury.

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
Acute lung injury (ALI), a frequent and severe complication of sepsis, is associated with significant mortality rates. Previous studies indicated that GLS2 plays a key role in promoting ferroptosis. However, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show, there were elevated ferroptosis and increased expression levels of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1), early growth response 1 (EGR1), and glutaminase 2 (GLS2) in both in vitro and in vivo ALI models. Additionally, EGR1 was found to induce the transcription of GLS2, thereby promoting ferroptosis. We also discovered that the protein level of EGR1 was increased through enhanced stability, facilitated by PRMT1-mediated arginine methylation, and reduced ubiquitination degradation regulated by neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4 like (NEDD4L). The in vivo results confirmed that the knockdown of PRMT1 suppressed ferroptosis via the EGR1/GLS2 axis. Our findings suggest that PRMT1-mediated stabilization of EGR1 promoted sepsis induced ALI via GLS2, highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeting PRMT1 or EGR1 in the treatment of sepsis-induced ALI.
