Radioresistance contributes to metastasis and recurrence in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. To provide novel clues, a complete multi-omics map of a radioresistant cancer cell line has been profiled.

Background: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a pivotal role in reshaping the tumor microenvironment following radiotherapy. The mechanisms underlying this reprogramming process remain to be elucidated.

Methods: Subcutaneous Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) murine model was treated with hypofrationated radiotherapy (8 Gy × 3F).

Plastic particles, especially nanoplastics, represent an emerging concern of threat to human health, oral uptake is an important pathway for the plastic particles ingestion by human. While their fate and adverse effects in animal gastrointestinal tract are increasingly investigated, knowledge about their uptake and toxicity in human intestine is still limited. Here, by exposing human intestinal organoids to polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs, ~50 nm in size) with concentrations of 10 and 100 μg/mL, we present evidence of their distinct accumulation in various type cells in intestinal organoids, then causing the cell apoptosis and inflammatory response.
