International lung cancer trends by histologic type: male:female differences diminishing and adenocarcinoma rates rising. [PDF]
Lung cancer rates have peaked among men in many areas of the world, but rates among women continue to rise. Most lung cancers are squamous cell carcinoma, small cell carcinoma, or adenocarcinoma; trends vary according to type.

MAP17 predicts sensitivity to platinum-based therapy, EGFR inhibitors and the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib in lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Background The high incidence and mortality of lung tumours is a major health problem. Therefore, the identification both of biomarkers predicting efficacy for therapies in use and of novel efficacious therapeutic agents is crucial to increase patient ...

Inhibition of hydrogen sulfide biosynthesis sensitizes lung adenocarcinoma to chemotherapeutic drugs by inhibiting mitochondrial DNA repair and suppressing cellular bioenergetics [PDF]
Therapeutic manipulation of the gasotransmitter hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) has recently been proposed as a novel targeted anticancer approach. Here we show that human lung adenocarcinoma tissue expresses high levels of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) producing ...

Pan-cancer classifications of tumor histological images using deep learning [PDF]
Histopathological images are essential for the diagnosis of cancer type and selection of optimal treatment. However, the current clinical process of manual inspection of images is time consuming and prone to intra- and inter-observer variability. Here we

Evolution of lung adenocarcinoma from preneoplasia to invasive adenocarcinoma
AbstractObjectiveMutations in driver genes contribute to the development and progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, in the dynamic evolutionary process from adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) to minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and eventually to invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC), the role of driver genes is currently unclear. This study aimed
