Unraveling the gender-specific molecular landscape of lung squamous cell carcinoma progression.

Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is a type of non-small cell lung cancer that is the most common and deadly type of lung cancer, originating from the cells lining the bronchi. The progression of LUSC is influenced by various factors, such as genetic, viral, environmental and hormonal factors, immune system response, and smoking history. Despite extensive studies aimed at improving patient survival, the role of gender-specific molecular variants in LUSC progression remains unclear.

Identification of key molecular players and associated pathways in cervical squamous cell carcinoma progression through network analysis.

Cervical cancer is the primary cause of mortality among women in developing countries. Preventing cervical cancer is partially possible through early vaccination against the human papillomavirus, the most common cause of the disease. Nevertheless, it is imperative to understand the genetics of the disease progression to develop new therapeutic strategies.
