High CD38 expression defines a mitochondrial function-adapted CD8 T cell subset with implications for lung cancer immunotherapy.

Despite identifying specific CD8 T cell subsets associated with immunotherapy resistance, the molecular pathways driving this process remain elusive. Given the potential role of CD38 in regulating CD8 T cell function, we aimed to investigate the accumulation of CD38CD8 T cells in lung cancer and explore its role in immunotherapy resistance. Phenotypic analysis of tumoral CD8 T cells from both lung cancer patients and immunotherapy-resistant preclinical models revealed that CD38-expressing CD8 T cells consist of CD38 and CD38 subsets.

Modulation of long noncoding RNAs by polyphenols as a novel potential therapeutic approach in lung cancer: A comprehensive review.

Lung cancer stands as a formidable global health challenge, necessitating innovative therapeutic strategies. Polyphenols, bioactive compounds synthesized by plants, have garnered attention for their diverse health benefits, particularly in combating various cancers, including lung cancer. The advent of whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing technologies has illuminated the pivotal roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), operating at epigenetic, transcriptional, and posttranscriptional levels, in cancer progression.

Synthesis of Ottonia anisum Extract Mediated ZnO NPs and Their Local Anesthetic, Analgesic and HCl‑induced Acute Lung Injury Activities.

In this study, we outlined the green synthesis of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using the plant-mediated method. Employing the nitrate derivative of Zinc and the extract from the native medicinal plant, Ottonia anisum, the nanoparticles were effectively produced. After obtaining a yellow-colored paste, it was meticulously dried, gathered, and set aside for subsequent examination.

-induced lncRNA promotes human embryo lung fibroblast fibrosis via recruiting EZH2 to epigenetically suppress expression.

Background: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an unrepairable disease that results in lung dysfunction and decreased quality of life. Prevention of pulmonary fibrosis is challenging, while its pathogenesis remains largely unknown. Herein, we investigated the effect and mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) /Antisense RNA in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis.
