Identification of potential diagnostic targets and therapeutic strategies for anoikis-related biomarkers in lung squamous cell carcinoma using machine learning and computational virtual screening.

Objective: Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is a common subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) characterized by high invasiveness, high metastatic potential, and drug resistance, resulting in poor patient prognosis. Anoikis, a specific form of apoptosis triggered by cell detachment from the extracellular matrix (ECM), plays a crucial role in tumor metastasis. Resistance to anoikis is a key mechanism by which cancer cells acquire metastatic potential.

Disease burden of trachea, bronchus and lung cancer 1990-2021 and global trends projected to 2035.

Tracheal, bronchial, and lung cancer (TBL) is among the most common malignancies worldwide, with persistently high incidence and mortality rates, posing a significant threat to public health. However, existing studies on TBL disease burden are often limited to specific regions or short-term trends, lacking systematic and predictive analyses. This study comprehensively evaluated the global, regional, and national burden of TBL across 204 countries and territories from 1990 to 2021, utilizing predictive models to estimate trends from 2022 to 2035.

The mechanism of cytokine regulation of cancer occurrence and development in the tumor microenvironment and its application in cancer treatment: a narrative review.

Background And Objective: The occurrence and development of tumors in human tissues widely depend on their surrounding environment, known as the tumor microenvironment (TME), which comprises various cells, molecules, and blood vessels. Through modifications, organization, and integration, these elements serve as potential therapeutic targets in anti-cancer therapy, supporting and promoting the proliferation, invasion, and metabolism of tumor cells. Cytokines within TME are responsible for immune cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation, thereby influencing the tumor's behavior.
