Article Abstract
Lung cancer, with 80-85% being non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is the leading cause of cancer-related death in both men and women. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), always defined as non-protein-coding RNA molecules longer than 200 nucleotides, are now thought as a new frontier in the study of human malignant diseases including NSCLC. As researches continue, increasing number of roles that lncRNAs play in NSCLC has been found, and more and more evidences show lncRNAs have a close relationship with patients' response to radiochemotherapy or molecular therapy. The aim of this review is to disclose the roles that lncRNAs play in NSCLC and how lncRANs influence the treatment of NSCLC.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most pervasive sort of lung cancer with deadly outcome. According to recent studies, a number of neoplastic disorders and ferroptosis are intimately connected. This study aims to identify the role of key ferroptosis-related gene (protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2, PRKAA2) and explore new directions for the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC.
Background: To clearly reveal the correlations between tumor characteristics, age at diagnosis, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation rates in patients with pulmonary ground-glass opacities (GGOs).
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 1473 patients with GGOs between January 2015 and May 2020 from two cancer centers. The tumor characteristics and EGFR mutation rates were compared between different age groups.

A poorer prognosis is thought to be associated with "double expressor lymphomas," which are a subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCL) that co-express MYC and BCL2. While the role of ubiquitin-specific peptidase 37 (USP37) in lung cancer, where it mediates the deubiquitination and stabilization of c-myc, has been well-documented, its involvement in DLBCL remains unexplored. The use of RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, or WB test allowed for the detection of elevated USP37 in DLBCL tissues and cells.
Background: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly fatal malignancy, the complex tumor microenvironment (TME) is a critical factor affecting SCLC progression. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are crucial components of TME, yet their role in SCLC and the underlying mechanisms during their interaction with SCLC cells remain to be determined.
Methods: Microenvironmental cell components were estimated using transcriptome data from SCLC tissue available in public databases, analyzed with bioinformatic algorithms.
Background: Increased ribosome biogenesis is required for tumor growth. In this study, we investigated the function and underlying molecular mechanism of ribosome biogenesis factor (RBIS) in the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: In our study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis to identify key genes implicated in ribosome biogenesis by leveraging a Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) dataset.
