Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine on Serum Interleukin-17 After Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery for Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Purpose: Surgical stress promotes tumor metastasis. Interleukin (IL)-17 plays a pivotal role in cancer progression, and high IL-17 expression predicts poor prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Lidocaine may exert tumor-inhibiting effects.

Suppression of WNK1-SPAK/OSR1 Attenuates Bone Cancer Pain by Regulating NKCC1 and KCC2.

Our preliminary experiment indicated the activation of with-nolysine kinases 1 (WNK1) in bone cancer pain (BCP) rats. This study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanisms via which WNK1 contributed to BCP. A rat model of BCP was induced by Walker-256 tumor cell implantation.
