Objective: This study makes a preliminary inquiry on the biological functions of PARPBP in lung adenocarcinoma progression.
Methods: mRNA expression profiles and clinical data for lung adenocarcinoma and normal lung samples were downloaded from the TCGA database. The expression of PARPBP was analyzed by a student's test. The survival curve of lung adenocarcinoma patients was drawn using Kaplan-Meier method. A Chi-square test was applied for analyzing the correlation between PARPBP expression and clinical factors. The prognosis value of PARPBP was determined using a cox proportional hazards model. A549 cells with silenced PARPBP were constructed using RNA interference. CCK8 assay and scratch tests were conducted to test the influence of PARPBP on A549 cell proliferation and migration. A Western blot was implemented to examine the changes of p-MEK/MEK and p-ERK/ERK ratios after depleting PARPBP.
Results: PARPBP expression is enhanced in lung adenocarcinoma tissues (=3.51E-35) and correlates with poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma patients (=0.003). High PARPBP expression is closely correlated with pathologic-stages (=0.033) and can be utilized as an independent predictor in lung adenocarcinoma patients. Moreover, the knockdown of PARPBP significantly suppressed A549 cell viability and migration (<0.01). In addition, the ratios of p-MEK/MEK and p-ERK/ERK declined after silencing PARPBP (<0.01).
Conclusions: PARPBP expression is enhanced in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and is a potential factor in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma.

The presence of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) has been correlated with improved prognosis and clinical outcomes in response to immunotherapy in certain solid tumors. However, the precise role of TLSs in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains unclear. Four datasets of LUAD were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO).

Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), is influenced by tumor-immune interactions. M2 macrophages play a significant role in the tumor microenvironment. This study explores the role of MRO, an M2 macrophage-associated gene, in NSCLC, focusing on immune infiltration, prognostic significance, and therapeutic potential.

TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) and Metastasis Associated Lung Adenocarcinoma Transcript (MALAT1) RNA are both abundantly expressed in the human cell nucleus. Increased interaction of TDP-43 and MALAT1, as well as dysregulation of TDP-43 function, was previously identified in brain samples from patients with neurodegenerative disease compared to healthy brain tissues. We hypothesized that TDP-43 function may depend in part on MALAT1 expression levels.

Lung cancer is a highly prevalent and fatal cancer that seriously threatens the safety of people in various regions around the world. Difficulty in early diagnosis and strong drug resistance have always been difficulties in the treatment of lung cancer, so the prognosis of lung cancer has always been the focus of scientific researchers. This study used genotype-tissue expression (GTEx) and the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) databases to obtain 477 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and 347 healthy individuals' samples as research subjects and divided LUAD patients into low-risk and high-risk groups based on prognostic risk scores.

Background: Ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma (OPA) is caused by Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV) and is considered an important potential animal model for human lung cancer. The precise mechanisms of OPA oncogenesis are still uncertain. The transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is activated by interleukin-6 (IL-6) in many cancers, but this aspect is unknown in OPA.
