A 62-year-old woman presented with chronic cough. Chest CT showed multiple nodules and consolidation. Bronchoscopy could not confirm a specific diagnosis. Because her symptoms and lung opacities improved spontaneously, she was followed without treatment. Seven months later, chest radiography showed worsening of consolidation and a tumorous shadow. After performing cervical lymph node and lung tissue biopsies, we diagnosed her as having angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). Cases of AITL showing migration of lung shadows have not been reported. AITL development is influenced by immunodeficiency and reactivation of EBV, and migration of lung opacities may be related to the patient's immune status.

Cellular senescence contributes to inflammation and organ dysfunction during aging. While this process is generally characterized by irreversible cell cycle arrest, its morphological features and functional impacts vary in different cells from various organs. In this study, we examined the expression of multiple senescent markers in the lungs of young and aged humans and mice, as well as in mouse lung endothelial cells cultured with a senescence inducer, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), or doxorubicin (DOXO).

N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) is a critical RNA modification implicated in cancer progression. Currently, N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) is recognized as the sole "writer" protein responsible for ac4C modification. However, the study of NAT10 and ac4C modification in lung cancer remains sparse.

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.

Objective: Lung cancer is the primary cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Protein kinase B (AKT) protein is associated with many pathways in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), such as proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis. Mushrooms have a long history of being used in traditional medicine to treat various diseases.
