Purpose Of Review: Translational research in Interventional Pulmonology has made significant advances in recent years, ranging from novel biomarkers and imaging to practice-changing clinical trials in lung cancer and pleural disease. This review article aims to summarize key research studies in the field to understand the latest published evidence and to highlight areas of growing academic interest.
Recent Findings: In lung cancer, the role of novel imaging and biomarkers and their potential utility in early lung cancer diagnosis will be highlighted. In pleural disease, less invasive/conservative treatment in pneumothorax, early aggressive treatment in pleural infection along with novel biomarkers, and the shift beyond drainage strategies in malignant pleural effusion and mesothelioma will be discussed.
Summary: This overview of translational research in the field of interventional pulmonology will ultimately help to highlight the gaps in current evidence to promote research in areas of clinical significance.

Background: Necroptosis is a form of programmed cell death resulting in tissue inflammation due to the release of intracellular contents. Its role and regulatory mechanism in the context of acute lung injury (ALI) are unclear. Parkin (Prkn), an E3 ubiquitin ligase, has recently been implicated in the regulation of necroptosis.

Background: It has been proposed that repeated exposure of bronchial epithelial cells to atmospheric particulate matter (PM) could disrupt airway epithelial integrity and lead to epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and ultimately airway remodeling. The molecular mechanisms underlying PM-related bronchial epithelial EMT have not yet been elucidated. The aim of this research is to clarify the molecular mechanism of EMT upon PM exposure.

Background: Anti-angiogenic agents, such as nintedanib and ramucirumab, when combined with docetaxel, are subsequent treatment options in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have failed on first-line chemotherapy or immunochemotherapy. However, to date, there are no validated predictive biomarkers for efficacy of anti-angiogenic therapies in this setting. The aim of this study was to explore whether genetic or genomic markers, alone or combined with clinical covariates, could be used to predict overall survival (OS) in patients with NSCLC who are eligible for treatment with nintedanib plus docetaxel.
