Patient. A case of peripheral leiomyosarcoma presenting with features of pulmonary thromboembolism is described.Discussion. Persistence of the embolus despite triple-armed thrombolytic therapy and the presence of intravascular tumour invasion suggest the rare entity of pulmonary tumour embolism from a leiomyosarcoma.

Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has significantly improved the survival for many patients with advanced malignancy. However, fewer than 50% of patients benefit from ICB, highlighting the need for more effective immunotherapy options. High-dose interleukin-2 (HD IL-2) immunotherapy, which is approved for patients with metastatic melanoma and renal cell carcinoma, stimulates CD8 T cells and NK cells and can generate durable responses in a subset of patients.

The article explores celery-derived extracellular vesicles (CDEVs), characterized by high cellular uptake, low immunogenicity, and high stability, as a therapeutic strategy for antitumor nanomedicines. The methods employed in this study include cell experiments such as co-culture, Western Blot, and flow cytometry. experiments were conducted in C57BL/6 tumor-bearing mice subcutaneously injected with Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells.

Cell membrane targeting sonodynamic therapy could induce the accumulation of lipid peroxidation (LPO), drive ferroptosis, and further enhances immunogenic cell death (ICD) effects. However, ferroptosis is restrained by the ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1) at the plasma membrane, which can catalyze the regeneration of ubiquinone (CoQ10) by using NAD(P)H to suppress the LPO accumulation. This work describes the construction of US-active nanoparticles (TiF NPs), which combinate cell-membrane targeting sonosensitizer TBT-CQi with FSP1 inhibitor (iFSP1), facilitating cell-membrane targeting sonodynamic-triggered ferroptosis.

Purpose: The potential of spectral images, particularly electron density and effective Z-images, generated by dual-energy computed tomography (DECT), for the histopathologic classification of lung cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to explore which imaging factors could better reflect the histopathological status of lung cancer.
Method: The data of 31 patients who underwent rapid kV-switching DECT and subsequently underwent surgery for lung cancer were analyzed.
