Purpose: This study used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) data to investigate changes in incidence, treatment, survival of lung cancer from 1973 2015. Patients methods: The clinical epidemiological patients with were obtained SEER database. Joinpoint regression models estimate rate related survival. Results: From 2015, average incidence was 59.0/100,000 personyears. increased initially, reached a peak 1992, then gradually decreased. A higher observed males than females...

Abstract Targeting ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death triggered by the lethal overload lipid peroxides, in cancer therapy is impeded our limited understanding intersection tumour’s metabolic feature and ferroptosis vulnerability. In present study, arginine identified as a ferroptotic promoter using metabolites library. This effect mainly achieved through arginine’s conversion to polyamines, which exerts their potent ferroptosis-promoting property H 2 O -dependent...

Abstract Background Lung cancer is one of the most common tumors in world, and metastasis major causes tumor-related death lung patients. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are a component tumor microenvironment (TME) frequently associated with human cancers. However, regulatory mechanisms TAMs remain unclear. Methods Single-cell sequencing analysis normal tissues from public databases 14 patients who underwent surgery at Zhongshan Hospital was performed. In vitro co-culture experiments...

BackgroundEsophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is among the most prevalent causes of cancer-related death in adults. Tumor microenvironment (TME) has been associated with therapeutic failure and lethal outcomes for patients. However, published reports on heterogeneity TME ESCC are scanty.MethodsFive tumor samples five corresponding non-malignant were subjected to scRNA-seq analysis. Bulk RNA sequencing data retrieved publicly available databases.FindingsFrom data, a total 128,688 cells...

As an early type of lung adenocarcinoma, ground glass nodule (GGN) has been detected increasingly and now accounts for most cancer outpatients. GGN a satisfactory prognosis its characteristics are quite different from solid adenocarcinoma (SADC). We compared the (GGN-ADC) with SADC using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to fully understand GGNs. The tumor samples five patients GGN-ADCs SADCs underwent surgery were digested suspension analyzed 10× Genomic scRNA-seq techniques. obtained...

Abstract Background Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients with different American Joint Committee on Cancer stages have overall 5‐year survival rates. The tumor microenvironment (TME) and intra‐tumor heterogeneity (ITH) been shown to play a crucial role in the occurrence development of tumors. However, TME ITH lesions LUAD not extensively explored. Methods We present 204,157‐cell catalog transcriptome 29 lung samples systematically explore LUAD. Traditional RNA sequencing data complete...

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Combination chemotherapy with cisplatin (CDDP) plus pemetrexed (PEM) remains predominant therapeutic regimen; however, chemoresistance greatly limits its curative potential. Here, through CRISPR-Cas9 screening, we identified miR-6077 as a key driver CDDP/PEM resistance in LUAD. Functional experiments verified that ectopic overexpression desensitized LUAD cells to both cell lines and patient-derived xenograft models....

Most cancer cells have fundamentally different metabolic characteristics, particularly much higher glycolysis rates than normal tissues, which support the increased demand for biosynthesis and promote tumor progression. We found that transforming growth factor (TGF)-β plays a dual function in regulating cell proliferation non-small lung cancer.We used PET/MRI imaging system to observe glucose metabolism of subcutaneous tumors nude mice. Energy lines detected by Seahorse XFe96 outflow...

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most common pathological type of esophageal cancer in China, accounting for more than 90 %. Most patients were diagnosed with advanced-stage ESCC, whom new adjuvant therapy recommended. Therefore, it urgent to explore therapeutic targets ESCC. Ferroptosis, a newly discovered iron-dependent programmed death, has been shown play an important role carcinogenesis by many studies. This study explored effect Polo like kinase 1 (PLK1) on...
