The significance of epigenetic modulation, involving acetylation, methylation, as well as ubiquitination has been indicated in the regulation of gene expression and tumor progression. Here, we elucidated the role of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in regulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-mediated metastasis via mRNA in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Three microarrays associated with lung cancer metastasis or recurrence, GSE23361, GSE7880 and GSE162102, were downloaded from the GEO database. Transmembrane protein 100 (TMEM100) was revealed to be the only one mRNA that was significantly downregulated in three microarrays. TMEM100, poorly expressed in lung cancer tissues, was associated with poor prognosis of lung cancer patients. Moreover, TMEM100 transcription was regulated by HDAC6 which repressed TMEM100 expression by deacetylation modification on the TMEM100 promoter. Knockdown of HDAC6 or overexpression of TMEM100 in NSCLC cells significantly inhibited TGF-β1-induced EMT and metastasis and suppressed the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Altogether, our study highlights HDAC6 as a lung cancer metastasis supporter through the suppression of TMEM100 and the induction of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Background: With advancements in minimally invasive thoracic surgery techniques, such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and robotic surgery, the design of vascular staplers has evolved to meet the requirements of these procedures. Consequently, newer generations of automatic staplers with improved handling and reduced size have been introduced, such as two-row staplers, which are more maneuverable and less bulky than their three-row counterparts.
Case Presentation: A 68-year-old man with lung cancer underwent a right middle and lower lobectomy due to tumor invasion into the central middle bronchial trunk, rendering the preservation of the middle lobe impossible.

Background: Patient-derived lung cancer organoids (PD-LCOs) demonstrate exceptional potential in preclinical testing and serve as a promising model for the multimodal management of lung cancer. However, certain lung cancer cells derived from patients exhibit limited capacity to generate organoids due to inter-tumor or intra-tumor variability. To overcome this limitation, we have created an in vitro system that employs mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) or fibroblasts to serve as a supportive scaffold for lung cancer cells that do not form organoids.

Background: Up to 23% of breast cancer patients recurred within a decade after trastuzumab treatment. Conversely, one trial found that patients with low HER2 expression and metastatic breast cancer had a positive response to trastuzumab-deruxtecan (T-Dxd). This indicates that relying solely on HER2 as a single diagnostic marker to predict the efficacy of anti-HER2 drugs is insufficient.

Background: Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are prone to developing brain metastases (BMs), particularly those with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. In clinical practice, treatment-naïve EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with asymptomatic BMs tend to choose EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as first-line therapy and defer intracranial radiotherapy (RT). However, the effectiveness of upfront intracranial RT remains unclear.

Background: This study aims to quantify intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) using preoperative CT image and evaluate its ability to predict pathological high-grade patterns, specifically micropapillary and/or solid components (MP/S), in patients diagnosed with clinical stage I solid lung adenocarcinoma (LADC).
Methods: In this retrospective study, we enrolled 457 patients who were postoperatively diagnosed with clinical stage I solid LADC from two medical centers, assigning them to either a training set (n = 304) or a test set (n = 153). Sub-regions within the tumor were identified using the K-means method.
