NLRC3, a negative regulator, exhibits considerable potential in the realm of lung cancer immunotherapy by virtue of its profound impact on the immune response intensity, primarily through its regulatory effects on the cGAS-STING pathway. The inhibition of NLRC3 has been found to augment the activity of the aforementioned pathway, thereby enhancing the anti-tumor immune response. This comprehensive review endeavors to elucidate the molecular and genetic structures of NLRC3, its role within the immune system, and its interaction with the cGAS-STING pathway, with a particular emphasis on its potential applications in lung cancer immunotherapy.

However, the majority of telehealth systems focus on operational functions and offer only a sectional patient journey at most. Experiences with incorporating longitudinal real-world medical record data into telehealth are valuable but have not been widely shared.

Resistance mechanisms to TKIs can be broadly classified into ALK-dependent and ALK-independent pathways. Here, we present a case with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) harboring an rearrangement.

New drugs are needed to overcome this dilemma. Moreover, the significant correlation between various client proteins of heat-shock protein (HSP) 90 and tumor occurrence, progression, and drug resistance suggests that HSP90 is a potential therapeutic target for NSCLC.

Background: Acyl-coenzyme A cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) is a membrane-binding enzyme localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. ACAT2 can promote the development of colon cancer, but its efficacy in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains uncertain.
Method: ACAT2 expression was performed by using the TIMER2.
For advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with common epidermal growth factor receptor () mutations (exon 19 deletions or the exon 21 L858R mutation), tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the standard therapies. However, germline mutations are extremely rare in lung cancer, and the effective therapy is unclear. This study reports a patient with primary breast and lung cancer carried rare germline R776H and somatic L861Q mutation, who benefit from EGFR TKIs.

The use of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) is the first line treatment for EGFR-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but drug resistance will be acquired within 1-2 years, and the following treatment efficacy is poor. The invention of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors has dramatically changed the situation of tumor treatment. PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are less effective in patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPurpose: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) represents a top therapeutic target in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. EGFR expression is intricately modulated by receptor endocytosis, during which EGFR ubiquitylation and deubiquitylation play fundamental roles to govern receptor fate. This study aims to uncover novel aspects of the endocytic regulation of EGFR trafficking by deubiquitylases.

Methods: Patients with untreated advanced or recurrent NSCLC were randomized (1:1 ratio) to receive either MIL60 or bevacizumab in combination with paclitaxel/carboplatin. Patients with non-progressive disease continued maintenance single-agent MIL60 until disease progression, or intolerable toxicity.
Osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), is effective in T790M positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Despite the efficacy of osimertinib, patients inevitably develop resistance and the mechanisms of osimertinib resistance are heterogeneous. Here, we report that a lung adenocarcinoma patient with L858R mutation who was treated with second-line osimertinib therapy acquired multiple resistance to osimertinib by the non-invasive circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) genotyping.

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has been confirmed to be contain the genomic alterations present in tumors and has been used to monitor tumor progression and response to treatments. Due to the presence of blood-brain barrier and other factors, peripheral blood ctDNA cannot reflect the information of brain lesions for patients with meningeal metastases.

Background: Risk factors and treatments for brain metastasis (BM) in patients with adenocarcinoma have not been fully profiled in previous studies because of the enrolment of patients with tumours of mixed histology. Thus, we specifically addressed the issue in patients with adenocarcinoma.
Methods: Clinical data for 373 patients with pathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma were studied retrospectively.
Background: For patients with a brain metastasis (BM), systemic therapy is usually administered after the completion of radiotherapy, especially in cases of multiple BMs. However, the role of systemic therapy in patients with a limited number of BMs is not clear. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective study to explore this question.
