Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers that threaten human life and health. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to play a unique role in many malignancies. Although the dysregulation of miR-147 has been detected in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the biological function of miR-147 is still unknown in NSCLC. The expression of miR-147 was observed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and Transwell assays were used to investigate the function of miR-147 in NSCLC. Target genes of miR-147 were verified using dual luciferase reporter assay. Western blot analysis was used to explore the PI3K/AKT pathway. The expression of miR-147 was decreased in NSCLC tissues, which was associated with poor prognosis in NSCLC patients. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-147 inhibited the viability and metastasis of NSCLC cells. In addition, miR-147 inhibited epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and inactivated the PI3K/AKT pathway in NSCLC. Furthermore, miR-147 directly targets brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and negatively regulates BDNF expression in NSCLC. Upregulation of BDNF attenuated the inhibitory effect of miR-147 in NSCLC. In conclusion, miR-147 inhibits cell proliferation, migration and invasion in NSCLC through suppressing BDNF expression.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS)-mediated protein S-sulfhydration has been shown to play critical roles in several diseases. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are the predominant population of immune cells present within solid tumor tissues, and they function to restrict antitumor immunity. However, no previous study has investigated the role of protein S-sulfhydration in TAM reprogramming in breast cancer (BC).

The prominence of circular RNAs (circRNAs) has surged in cancer research due to their distinctive properties and impact on cancer development. This review delves into the role of circRNAs in four key cancer types: colorectal cancer (CRC), gastric cancer (GC), liver cancer (HCC), and lung cancer (LUAD). The focus lies on their potential as cancer biomarkers and drug targets.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze the predictive value of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte count to monocyte count ratio (LMR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), platelet count multiplied by neutrophil count to lymphocyte count ratio (SII), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), packed cell volume (PCV), and plateletcrit (PCT) levels in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
Materials And Methods: From March 2019 to August 2023, we screened 104 of 153 patients with stage III unresectable local advanced NSCLC and IV NSCLC who received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy at our hospital and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for analysis. All patients were collected for clinical information, including baseline blood indicator (NLR, PLR, LMR, SII, CRP, RDW, PCV and PCT) levels before PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy and blood indicator levels and imaging evaluation results every two cycles after PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy.

Berberine (BBR) has been proved to inhibit the malignant progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the underlying molecular mechanism still needs to be further revealed. NSCLC cells (A549 and H1299) were treated with BBR. CCK8 assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometry, TUNEL staining and transwell assay were used to examine cell proliferation, apoptosis and invasion.

Identification of lesion demarcation during thoracoscopic anatomical lesion resection is fundamental for treating children with congenital lung malformation. Existing lesion demarcations do not always meet the needs of clinical practice. This study aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of near-infrared fluorescence imaging with nebulized inhalation of indocyanine green for thoracoscopic anatomical lesion resection in children with congenital lung malformation.
