  • - Taurine is a naturally occurring substance that plays a role in many bodily functions and may predict lung cancer development. Elevated levels of taurine were found in lung cancer patients, but the relationship between these levels and cancer progression is unclear.
  • - The study investigated taurine's impact on lung cancer using mouse models and patient tissue samples, aiming to find new treatment strategies by exploring taurine's mechanisms.
  • - Results showed that low doses of taurine and taurine drinks promoted tumor growth, while higher doses reduced this effect. The research suggests that taurine influences lung cancer progression through immune responses and inflammatory mechanisms, with related effects changing as patients age.
