Single-cell analysis links DCUN1D5 to immune remodeling and cisplatin resistance in recurrent osteosarcoma.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Cisplatin is the primary chemotherapeutic agent for osteosarcoma. However, a significant proportion of patients develop resistance post-treatment, leading to disease recurrence and presenting profound clinical challenges. To understand the mechanisms underlying osteosarcoma recurrence and cisplatin resistance, particularly from the tumor microenvironment perspective, we consolidated numerous single-cell RNA sequencing datasets, offering an encompassing insight into the osteosarcoma microenvironment. When juxtaposing scRNA-seq with bulk RNA-seq data, we observed a strong correlation between high DCUN1D5 expression in osteosarcoma and patient survival. This gene amplifies osteosarcoma's anti-apoptotic, invasive, stem-cell-like traits and PI3K/AKT/GSK3β pathway phosphorylation and fosters cisplatin resistance. Subsequent research revealed that cisplatin-resistant osteosarcoma cells excrete DCUN1D5-rich exosomes, facilitating the maturation of osteoclast precursors. Excessive osteoclast activity is a pivotal contributor to osteosarcoma recurrence and resistance. Given these insights, DCUN1D5 is a promising therapeutic target for osteosarcoma recurrence and drug resistance.
