Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to play vital roles in human lung cancer. In recent years, cancer/testis (CT) lncRNAs have been characterized as a novel class of lncRNA. However, this class of lncRNA remains to be thoroughly investigated. The present study identified long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1635 (LINC01635), which was highly expressed in testis and in a broad range of human cancer types. Next, it was confirmed that LINC01635 was upregulated significantly in samples from patients with lung cancer and in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cell lines. Silencing LINC01635 suppressed the proliferation and metastasis of NSCLC cells and . Furthermore, it was found that LINC01635 could bind to microRNA (miRNA or miR)-455-5p and regulate the expression of a series of miR-455-5p-targeting tumor-related genes. Knockdown of miR-455-5p partially rescued the progression of lung cancer cells that was suppressed by LINC01635 silencing. Together, the current results demonstrated that LINC01635 may play important roles in NSCLC progression by targeting miR-455-5p, and that it could be a biomarker and therapeutic target for lung cancer.

Erlotinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), is currently used in the therapy of several solid malignancies. This agent has been associated with several dermatological side-effects, the most common being papulo-pustular acneiform rash. Herein we describe a unique skin effect in a patient treated with erlotinib for non-small cell lung cancer.

Resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) is the main cause of mortality in lung cancer. This study aimed to investigate the roles of neuropilin 1 (NRP1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NRP1 expression was assessed in tumor tissues from patients with osimertinib-resistant (OR) NSCLC and osimertinib-responsive NSCLC as well as in patients with paracancerous NSCLC tissues who did not undergo radiotherapy or chemotherapy.

This study aimed to explore the risk factors for mediastinal lymph node metastases (MLNM) in patients with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to establish a predictive model. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data from NSCLC patients treated at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and the First Affiliated Dongguan Hospital of Guangdong Medical University between March 2021 and March 2023. Baseline clinical data, laboratory parameters, and pathological features were collected and analyzed.

Conversions among cancer cell states can result in intratumoral heterogeneity which contributes to metastasis and development of drug resistance. However, mechanisms underlying the initiation and/or maintenance of such phenotypic plasticity are poorly understood.

Despite its potential, clinical translation remains limited by the challenge of reliably detecting endogenous, disease-specific biomarkers in breath. Synthetic biomarkers represent an emerging paradigm for precision diagnostics such that they amplify activity-based biochemical signals associated with disease fingerprints.
