Mutant KRAS regulates transposable element (TE) RNA and interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) expression, but it remains unclear whether diverse mutations in KRAS affect different TE RNAs throughout the genome. We analyzed the transcriptomes of 3D human lung cancer spheroids that harbor KRAS(G12C) mutations to determine the landscape of TE RNAs regulated by mutant KRAS(G12C). We found that KRAS(G12C) signaling is required for the expression of LINE- and LTR-derived TE RNAs that are distinct from TE RNAs previously shown to be regulated by mutant KRAS(G12D) or KRAS(G12V). Moreover, KRAS(G12C) inhibition specifically upregulates SINE-derived TE RNAs from the youngest Alu subfamily AluY. Our results reveal that TE RNA dysregulation in KRAS-driven lung cancer cells is mutation-dependent, while also highlighting a subset of young, Alu-derived TE RNAs that are coordinately activated with innate immunity genes upon KRAS(G12C) inhibition.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) increases the mortality of preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). There are no curative therapies for this disease. Lung endothelial carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1a (Cpt1a), the rate-limiting enzyme of the carnitine shuttle system, is reduced in a rodent model of BPD.

KRAS is a proto-oncogene that is found to be mutated in 15% of all metastatic cancers with high prevalence in pancreatic, lung, and colorectal cancers. Additionally, patients harboring KRAS mutations respond poorly to standard cancer therapy. As a result, KRAS is seen as an attractive target for targeted anticancer therapy.

Early cancer detection substantially improves the rate of patient survival; however, conventional screening methods are directed at single anatomical sites and focus primarily on a limited number of cancers, such as gastric, colorectal, lung, breast, and cervical cancer. Additionally, several cancers are inadequately screened, hindering early detection of 45.5% cases.

Article Synopsis
- Lung cancer has the highest incidence and mortality rates globally, making effective post-surgical mental health support crucial due to associated challenges like anxiety and depression.
- Traditional Chinese medicine shows promise in improving psychological well-being and physical symptoms after lung cancer surgery, but its effectiveness specifically for mental function recovery needs investigation.
- The study will systematically review various databases for randomized controlled trials focusing on depression and anxiety after lung cancer surgery, assessing data quality and outcomes using established evaluation tools.

Background: A broncho-esophageal fistula (BEF) is a medical and surgical disaster. Treatment of BEF is often limited to palliative stent treatment that may migrate or cause erosions and tissue necrosis. Surgical repair of BEF is the only established definite treatment.
