[Progress of Epigenetic Methylation in Lung Cancer Research].

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer is becoming an increasing threat to Chinese residents and its incidence continues to rise while the treatment effect is far from satisfactory. Hence, it is essential to improve the level of early diagnosis, treatment, prognosis in lung cancer. An epigenetic trait is a stably heritable phenotype resulting from changes in a chromosome without alterations in the DNA sequence. The epigenetic studies, such as DNA methylation and histone methylation, are progressing rapidly in oncology research. A comprehensive understanding of its development status and existing problems is of great significance for the future research and the implementation of precision medicine. Herein, we aim to outline the progress of DNA methylation and histone methylation modification in lung cancer and make a prospect for the future research.

[Research Progress of Lung Cancer Vaccines].

Project description:With the development of medical technology, tumor vaccines as a novel precise immunotherapy approach have gradually received attention in clinical applications. Against the backdrop of the global corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, vaccine technology has further advanced. Depending on the types of antigens, tumor vaccines can be divided into whole-cell vaccines, peptide vaccines, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines, recombinant virus vaccines, etc. Although some tumor vaccines have been marketed and achieved certain therapeutic effects, the results of tumor vaccines in clinical trials have been unsatisfactory in the past period. With the maturation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology and the continuous development of bioinformatics, dynamic monitoring of the entire process of tumor subpopulation development has become a reality, which has laid a solid foundation for personalized, neoantigen-centered therapeutic tumor vaccines. This article reviews the recent developments of tumor vaccines of different types, starts with lung cancer and summarizes the achievements of tumor vaccines in clinical applications, and provides an outlook for the future development of antigen-centered tumor vaccines. .

[Research Progress of Cancer-associated Fibroblasts in Lung Cancer].

Project description:Tumor stroma plays key roles in promoting tumor recurrence and treatment resistance. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are one of the most abundant and key components in the stroma of lung cancer. CAFs secrete a variety of inflammatory cytokines and extracellular matrix to form a desmoplastic tumor niche, which play important roles in the occurrence and development of lung cancer. CAFs are mainly derived from normal lung fibroblasts, which are transformed by tumor-derived cytokines. The diverse sources of CAFs lead to great heterogeneity in different CAFs subgroups. Although many studies support that CAFs promote tumor growth, but evolving data also argue for their antitumor actions. The putative bimodal function in oncogenesis of CAFs bring great challenges to the clinical application of CAFs-targeted therapies. This review focuses on the characteristics and functional research of CAFs, and emphasizes the roles and specificity of CAFs in the development of lung cancer.

[Research Progress of Tumor-Associated Neutrophils and Lung Cancer].

Project description:Lung cancer is a global disease with high morbidity and mortality, which seriously affects human health. The long-term existence of chronic pulmonary inflammation is closely related to the occurrence and development of lung cancer, neutrophils are not only involved in acute and chronic inflammation, but also in the composition of tumor microenvironment (TME), which is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors. Recent studies have found that tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) play an important role in the occurrence and development of lung cancer. This article reviews the role, mechanism and clinical significance of tumor-related neutrophils in lung cancer.

[Mechanism of Ferroptosis and Its Research Progress in Lung Cancer].

Project description:Ferroptosis is a recently recognized form of regulated cell death caused by an iron-dependent accumulation of lipid reactive species. However, little research on ferroptosis and lung cancer, one of the most common tumors, has been carried out. This paper tries to review the research progress of ferroptotic suppression and explain it from the different ways of ferroptosis occurrence. Furthermore, as inducing ferroptosis to treat cancer gets more attention, we introduce four kinds of ferroptosis-inducing compounds and new prospects for lung cancer therapy to provide new ideas for lung cancer treatment.

Research progress in the treatment of small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for approximately 10-15% of all lung cancers. No significant improvement has been made for patients with SCLC in the past several decades. The main progresses were the thoracic radiation and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) that improved the patient survival rate. For patients with limited disease and good performance status (PS), concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by PCI should be considered. For extensive disease, the combination of etoposide and platinum-based chemotherapy remains the standard treatment and consolidative thoracic radiotherapy is beneficial for patients who have a significant respond to initial chemotherapy. However, the prognosis still remains poor. Recently, efforts have been focused on molecular targets and immunotherapy. But numerous molecular targets methods have failed to show a significant clinical benefit in patients with SCLC. It is anticipated that further development of research will depend on the on-going trials for molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy which are promising and may improve the outcomes for SCLC in the next decade.

[Research Progress of Immune Checkpoint TIGIT in Lung Cancer Immunotherapy].

Project description:T cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif domain (TIGIT) is a newly discovered immune checkpoint molecule, mainly expressed on the surface of T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. By binding to cluster of differentiation 155 (CD155) and other ligands, it inhibits T cell and NK cell-mediated immune responses and affects the tumor microenvironment. Multiple preclinical studies have demonstrated that the TIGIT/CD155 pathway plays a role in a variety of solid and hematological tumors. Clinical trials investigating TIGIT inhibitors alone or in combination with programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors for lung cancer are currently underway. .

[Research Progress of KRAS Mutation in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer].

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 80%-85% of all patients with lung cancer, the majority of patients with lung cancer at the time of diagnosis is in the advanced stage. The development of target therapy based on has changed the mode of treatment in patients with advanced NSCLC. In NSCLC, epidermal growth factor receptor mutation (EGFR) fusion with echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like4-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EML4-ALK) has been shown to be a powerful biomarker. It is well known that KRAS is also NSCLC one of the most common mutations in oncogenes, although more than 20 years ago KRAS mutation was found in NSCLC. At present, although there are many drugs used to treat NSCLC patients with KRAS mutation, there is no selective or specific inhibitor for the direct elimination of KRAS activity. NSCLC patients with KRAS mutation have poor responsiveness to most systemic therapy. However, individualized therapy for activated signaling pathways with targeted drugs has a good effect on the prognosis of NSCLC patients with KRAS mutation. In addition, the prognostic and predictive role of KRAS mutation in NSCLC remains unclear. In this review, we focus on the research progress of NSCLC with KRAS mutation, including molecular biology, clinicopathological features, prognosis and prediction of KRAS mutation, which will help to improve the understanding of NSCLC in KRAS mutation.?.
