Engineering Inorganic Nanoparticles to Induce Cuproptosis: A New Strategy for Cancer Therapy.
Review in Pharmaceutics, 2025. 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
Cuproptosis is a newly identified type of copper (Cu)-dependent programmed cell death (PCD), triggered when Cu directly interacts with the lipoylated components of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and it has shown significant antitumor potential. However, challenges such as insufficient Cu accumulation in tumor cells, systemic toxicity, and the lack of specific carriers for effectively inducing cuproptosis hinder its practical application. Inorganic nanoparticles (INPs) present a promising solution due to their unique ability to target specific areas, potential for multifunctional modification, and controlled release capabilities. Their distinctive physicochemical properties also enable the integration of synergistic multimodal cancer therapies. Therefore, utilizing INPs to induce cuproptosis represents a promising strategy for cancer treatment. This review systematically elucidates the regulatory mechanisms of Cu homeostasis and the molecular pathways underlying cuproptosis, thoroughly discusses current INP-based strategies designed to trigger cuproptosis, and comprehensively examines the multi-modal synergistic antitumor mechanisms based on cuproptosis. Finally, we also address the current challenges and future perspectives in developing clinically applicable nanoplatforms aimed at harnessing cuproptosis for effective cancer therapy.
