Pulmonary nodules with part-solid imaging features manifest during the progression from preinvasive to invasive lung adenocarcinoma. To define the spatial composition and evolutionary trajectories of early-stage lung adenocarcinoma, we combined spatial transcriptomics (ST) and pathological annotations from 20 part-solid nodules (PSNs), four of which were matched with single-cell RNA sequencing. Two malignant cell populations (MC1 and MC2) were identified, and a linear evolutionary relationship was observed. Compared to MC2, the pre-existing malignant MC1 exhibited a lower metastatic signature, corresponding to the preinvasive component (lepidic) on pathology and the ground glass component on PSN imaging. Higher immune infiltration was observed among MC1 regions in ST profiles, and further analysis revealed that macrophages may be involved in this process through the CD74 axis. This work provides deeper insights into the evolutionary process and spatial immune cell composition behind PSNs and highlights the mechanisms of immune escape behind this adenocarcinoma trajectory.

Gender Disparities and Lung Cancer Screening Outcomes Among Individuals Who Have Never Smoked.
JAMA Netw Open

Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Republic of Korea.
Importance: Lung cancer in individuals who have never smoked (INS) is a growing global concern, with a rapidly increasing incidence and proportion among all lung cancer cases. Particularly in East Asia, opportunistic lung cancer screening (LCS) programs targeting INS have gained popularity. However, the sex-specific outcomes and drawbacks of screening INS remain unexplored, with data predominantly focused on women.

Objective: Rosmarinic acid (RosA) is a natural polyphenol compound that has been shown to be effective in the treatment of inflammatory disease and a variety of malignant tumors. However, its specific mechanism for the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, this study aims to clarify the mechanism of RosA in the treatment of LUAD by integrating bioinformatics, network pharmacology and in vivo experiments, and to explore the potential of the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine in treating LUAD.

Background: Recent studies have highlighted the role of RNA modification, that is, the dysregulation of epitranscriptomics, in tumorigenesis and progression. The potential for undoing epigenetic changes may develop novel therapeutic and prognostic approaches. However, the roles of these RNA modifications in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are still unknown.

Background: Neurologic symptoms seen in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) may not be entirely caused by immunotoxicity. We aim to highlight these confounding conditions through clinical cases to encourage early recognition and management.
Methods: We describe a series of seven cases from our institution that were treated with ICI and presented with Neurologic symptoms and were diagnosed with superimposed conditions beyond immunotoxicity.

As the most prevalent subtype of lung cancer, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is closely associated with angiogenesis, which is fundamental to its progression. ADAM8 (A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 8) is an enzyme associated with tumor invasion, while its implications in LUAD angiogenesis are a field that awaits exploration. A thorough investigation into the impacts of ADAM8 on LUAD angiogenesis could contribute to the development of therapeutic drugs for LUAD.
