The present study examined the relationship between methylation of five genes (p16(INK4a), RASSF1A, APC, RARbeta and CDH13) and patient survival in 351 cases of surgically resected lung cancers. While there was no relationship between the other genes and survival, p16(INK4a) methylation was significantly related to unfavourable prognosis in lung adenocarcinomas.

B cells have emerged as central players in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, although there is clear evidence for their involvement in cancer immunity, scanty data exist on the characterization of B cell phenotypes, bioenergetic profiles and possible interactions with T cells in the context of NSCLC. In this study, using polychromatic flow cytometry, mass cytometry, and spatial transcriptomics we explored the intricate landscape of B cell phenotypes, bioenergetics, and their interaction with T cells in NSCLC.

MicroRNA (miRNA) dysregulation has been identified in several carcinomas, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and is known to play a role in the development and progression of this disease. We initially conducted a miRNA microarray analysis, which revealed that the MNK inhibitor CGP57380 increased the expression of miR-150-3p. A similar analysis was performed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), carrying PD-L1, have been implicated in immune evasion and tumor progression. However, understanding how PD-L1 sEVs are secreted still needs to be improved. We found that the secretion dynamics of PD-L1 sEVs is similar to that of other sEVs.

Background: Schlafen 11 (SLFN-11) has been identified as a sensitizer of tumor cells to DNA-damaging agents. However, the relationship between SLFN-11 expression and clinical outcomes in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains unexplored. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the impact of SLFN-11 expression on survival in patients with limited-stage (LS) SCLC.

Arterial cannulation, commonly performed in the radial artery, is a widely used method for continuous blood pressure monitoring. Occasionally, the axillary artery is used as an alternate site of cannulation. However, complications like occlusion can lead to adverse events and severe outcomes.
