Article Synopsis
  • Lazertinib is a new type of medicine that helps treat a kind of lung cancer called NSCLC, especially for people whose cancer got worse after other treatments.
  • In a study with 78 patients, those taking lazertinib lived for an average of about 39 months and had good survival rates at 1, 2, and 3 years.
  • The study found that checking for certain cancer genes in the blood can help predict how well patients will respond to lazertinib treatment.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized antigen-presenting cells that have a notable role in the initiation and regulation of innate and adaptive immune responses. In the context of cancer, appropriately activated DCs can induce anti-tumor immunity by activating innate immune cells and tumor-specific lymphocytes that target cancer cells. However, the tumor microenvironment (TME) imposes different mechanisms that facilitate the impairment of DC functions, such as inefficient antigen presentation or polarization into immunosuppressive DCs.

The effects of a heat treatment on the structural and electrical properties of GZO thin films grown by RF magnetron sputtering were investigated. The heat treatment involved temperatures in the range from 200 degrees C to 500 degrees C under air. As the temperature was increased, the electrical properties of GZO thin films increased exponentially and the surface morphology was drastically altered.
