In the world of preclinical lung cancer research, seeing a tumor is only half the battle. While traditional imaging like microCT can show us where a mass is located, it often fails to tell the full story: How is that tumor actually affecting the animal’s ability to breathe? A recent pilot study by Smith et al (2025) has broken new ...
The increasing prevalence of electronic cigarette use, particularly among younger demographics, has prompted urgent investigation into its long-term health implications. While combustible cigarette smoke (CCS) is a well-established carcinogen, the oncogenic potential of electronic cigarette vapor (ECV) remains underexplored. A recent study led by Dr. Moghaddam et al. at The University of ...
About Tumor Suppressor Genes A tumor suppressor gene, also known as anti-onco gene, is an essential component of the body's defense against cancer. ...
A study conducted under the Lung Cancer Master Protocol (Lung-MAP) found that when treated with a combination of ramuzumab (Cyramza) and Keytruda, Patients with advanced NSCLC whose cancer progressed during prior immunotherapy lived significantly longer than when treated with one of the current standard therapies for this cancer. ...
Recently, in a study published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics entitled "Olfactory Receptor OR2H1 is an effective target for CAR T cells in human epithelial tumors," scientists from Moffitt Cancer Research Center identified a novel potential target for CAR-T cells called OR2H1 through research, which may help inhibit the growth of lung and ovarian cancers. ...
Background Tumor immunotherapies compose immune checkpoint inhibitors, therapeutic antibodies, tumor vaccines, cellular therapies, and so on. ...
Diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a highly aggressive and heterogeneous tumor that is the most common form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. With the development of novel targeted therapies, most patients with DLBCL can be cured. ...
Recently, Yang Hui, a researcher at Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed a nanofluidic chip technology to achieve high-throughput preparation of exosome drug carriers and experimentally verify the anti-tumor effect of novel exosome drug carriers. Exosomes are nanoscale particles that can be secreted into the extracellular space or ...
NEW YORK - Spanish cancer research firm Universal Diagnostics is gearing up to commercialize a liquid biopsy test that applies methylation biomarkers to detect lung cancer, based on data presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2020 World Conference for Lung Cancer (WCLC) last month. ...
These hazards may include fibrosis, promotion of lung tumors, cardiovascular dysfunction, and pulmonary and systemic inflammation. ...
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a bystander effect is manifested in a large cell lung tumoural cell line (QU-DB). For induction of a bystander effect in non-irradiated cells the 'medium transfer' technique was employed, and to observe the effect the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay was applied. Results showed that irradiated and bystander cells demonstrated higher numbers ...
The pleura, or lining around the outside of the lungs and inside of the ribs, has some lubricating fluid. It allows the lungs and ribs to slide over each other comfortably. ...
