Ganodermanontriol Suppresses the Progression of Lung Adenocarcinoma by Activating CES2 to Enhance the Metabolism of Mycophenolate Mofetil.

New anti-lung cancer therapies are urgently required to improve clinical outcomes. Since ganodermanontriol (GDNT) has been identified as a potential antineoplastic agent, its role in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is investigated in this study. Concretely, lung cancer cells were treated with GDNT and/or mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), after which MTT assay, flow cytometry and Western blot were conducted.

Ganoderic acid A suppresses autophagy by regulating the circFLNA/miR-486-3p/CYP1A1/XRCC1 axis to strengthen the sensitivity of lung cancer cells to cisplatin.

Objectives: Reportedly, ganoderic acid A (GA-A) increases the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells to cisplatin (DDP) chemotherapy. Therefore, this study aims to fathom the influence of GA-A on lung cancer cells.

Methods: After the construction of A549/DDP cells through exposure to DDP, the effects of GA-A on A549 and A549/DDP cells were revealed by cellular functional assays, western blot and quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR).

rs1799782 Promotes DNA Damage Repair in Lung Cancer Cells by Enhancing Its Binding to to Facilitate -Mediated Transcription of .

Background: () rs1799782 polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of lung cancer (LC). The aim of this study is to analyze the underlying biological mechanisms.

Methods: Dual luciferase reporter assay was utilized to verify the impact of polymorphism upon promoter activity of .

Identification of Elderly Patients with Lower Respiratory Tract Infection by Artificial Intelligence Analysis of Cough Pattern Sounds.

Background: Automatic recognition of cough sounds shows promise in the diagnosis of respiratory conditions. This study investigated the diagnostic value of cough sounds in elderly patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI).

Methods: We selected 83 elderly patients with suspected LRTI who sought medical advice at our hospital from January 2022 to September 2022, and grouped them into the infected and uninfected categories, according to their clinical traits.

Dendritic cells infected with recombinant adenoviral vector encoding mouse fibroblast activation protein-α and human livin α exert an antitumor effect against Lewis lung carcinoma in mice.

Background: Fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP) and livin α are considered as cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and tumor-specific targets, respectively, for immunogenic tumor vaccines. This study is designed to decipher the antitumor effect of double-gene modified dendritic cells (DCs) on Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC).

Methods: By encoding mouse FAP cDNA and human livin α (i.

IL-10/IL-10 receptor 1 pathway promotes the viability and collagen synthesis of pulmonary fibroblasts originated from interstitial pneumonia tissues.

Interstitial pneumonia is a pulmonary interstitial inflammatory and fibrosis disease with a variety of causes that causes respiratory disorders and threatens the lives of patients. The present study aimed to investigate the expression of interleukin (IL)-10 in peripheral blood of patients with interstitial pneumonia and its biological functions in pulmonary fibroblasts. A total of 42 patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and 20 healthy subjects were included.

Baicalin attenuates XRCC1-mediated DNA repair to enhance the sensitivity of lung cancer cells to cisplatin.

Baicalin plays important roles in different types of cancer. A previous report showed that baicalin attenuates cisplatin resistance in lung cancer. However, its mechanism remains unclear.

Circular RNA FLNA acts as a sponge of miR-486-3p in promoting lung cancer progression via regulating XRCC1 and CYP1A1.

Significantly high-expressed circFLNA has been found in various cancer cell lines, but not in lung cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the role of circFLNA in the progression of lung cancer. The target gene of circFLNA was determined by bioinformatics and luciferase reporter assay.

MiR-204 reduces cisplatin resistance in non-small cell lung cancer through suppression of the caveolin-1/AKT/Bad pathway.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common and lethal human malignant tumor worldwide. Platinum-based chemotherapy is still the mainstay of treatment for NSCLC. However, long-term chemotherapy usually induces serious drug resistance in NSCLC cells.
