Background: Awareness of age-related features of carcinogenesis and the importance of cellular immunity is crucial for developing effective antitumor therapies for specific patient groups.
Methods: In this study, we examined different populations of cancer stem cells (CSCs) and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in "young" (8-10 weeks) and "aged" (80-82 weeks) C57BL/6 male mice. We used an orthotopic model of Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) to evaluate the effectiveness of cell therapy targeting lung cancer through reprogrammed CD8-positive T cells (rCD8+ T cells) in mice from two different ages.
Results: The findings revealed that tumor progression with age is primarily caused by impaired recruitment of T cells to the lungs. Additionally, a lower number of CTCs and CSCs were observed in younger mice compared to the older mice. The antitumor effect of rCD8+ T cells in aged mice was found to be inferior to that in young mice, which can be attributed to the reduced impact of therapy on specific CSCs populations.
Conclusions: These results offer new insights into the treatment of lung cancer using rCD8+ T cells. Considering the age-related characteristics influencing disease progression, this therapy has the potential to significantly enhance the effectiveness of treatment methods.
背景:了解与年龄相关的癌变特征以及细胞免疫的重要性,对于开发针对特定患者群体的有效抗肿瘤疗法至关重要:在这项研究中,我们检测了 "年轻"(8-10周)和 "衰老"(80-82周)C57BL/6雄性小鼠体内癌症干细胞(CSCs)和循环肿瘤细胞(CTCs)的不同群体。我们利用路易斯肺癌(LLC)的正位模型,评估了通过重编程 CD8 阳性 T 细胞(rCD8+ T 细胞)对两种不同年龄小鼠肺癌进行细胞治疗的效果:结果:研究结果表明,随着年龄的增长,肿瘤进展的主要原因是T细胞招募到肺部的能力受损。此外,与年龄较大的小鼠相比,年龄较小的小鼠体内观察到的 CTC 和 CSC 数量较少。研究发现,rCD8+ T细胞对老年小鼠的抗肿瘤效果不如年轻小鼠,这可能是由于治疗对特定CSCs群体的影响减弱所致:这些结果为利用 rCD8+ T 细胞治疗肺癌提供了新的见解。考虑到影响疾病进展的年龄相关特征,这种疗法有可能显著提高治疗方法的有效性。

BackgroundEsophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors, with high incidence and poor prognosis. Revealing mechanisms of ESCC progression and developing new therapeutic targets remains crucial. The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanism of miR‐30c‐5p in regulating the malignant progression of ESCC.MethodsTCGA, GEO, and other datasets were used to analyze the differential expression of miR‐30c‐5p in ESCC and adjacent tissues, and its impact on prognosis. Then the effects of miR‐30c‐5p on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of TE‐1 and Eca9706 cells were investigated through proliferation experiments, transwell and wounding healing assays. The regulatory mechanism of miR‐30c‐5p on the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and its interaction in cancer progression were investigated through Western blots, dual‐luciferase reporter assay, and rescue experiments.ResultsmiR‐30c‐5p was significantly downregulated in ESCC tissue and represented a poor prognosis. miR‐30c‐5p mimic significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion ability of ESCC, while miR‐30c‐5p inhibitor significantly promoted tumor cell progression. Through bioinformatic analysis and experimental results, miR‐30c‐5p interacted directly with PIK3CA mRNA and inhibited subsequent signaling pathway activation. PIK3CA activator could eliminate the inhibitory effects of miR‐30c‐5p mimic on the progression of ESCC, while PIK3CA inhibitors could rescue the promoting effect of miR‐30c‐5p inhibitor group cells.ConclusionsIn summary, we found that miR‐30c‐5p inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of ESCC by inhibiting PI3K/AKT signaling pathway for the first time, and this study is expected to provide a novel insight and potential therapeutic target for managing ESCC.

Radiotherapy is a crucial component in the holistic management of breast cancer, with approximately 60% of individuals diagnosed with breast cancer requiring this treatment. As the survival rate of individuals with breast cancer has significantly increased, there is a growing focus on the long‐term well‐being of patients. Proton therapy (PT) is a new and rapidly developing radiotherapy method. In comparison with conventional photon therapy, PT offers the benefits of decreased radiation toxicity and increased dosage in the designated region. This can extend patients' lifespan and enhance their overall well‐being. The present analysis examines the function of PT in diminishing the harmful effects of radiation in cases of breast cancer, while also providing a brief overview of the future potential and obstacles associated with PT for breast cancer.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) commonly infects immunocompromised individuals, such as cancer patients. We present a case involving a 60‐year‐old male with Stage 3A lung adenocarcinoma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) diagnosed with CMV tracheobronchitis, initially suspected as cancer progression. Treatment with ganciclovir led to partial improvement in symptoms of shortness of breath and cough, as well as bronchoscopic findings. However, due to ganciclovir‐induced neutropenia, the therapy was switched to foscarnet. Distinguishing between cancer progression and infectious tracheobronchitis through physical examination and chest CT scans remains challenging. In lung cancer patients presenting with airway and bronchial narrowing along with ulcerative mucosal lesions, CMV infection should be considered. A bronchoscopic biopsy is crucial for accurate diagnosis and determining the appropriate treatment in these patients.

A 41 year‐old female with a medical history of Turner syndrome underwent a chest computed tomography (CT) scan which revealed a varicose left pulmonary vein and an endobronchial tumor of the left lower lobe. As venous drainage of each lobe seemed to be respected, surgical resection was considered. During surgical exploration, the absence of fissure and a unique venous trunk was observed. Surgical resection was aborted as only pneumonectomy was possible in this context. Endobronchial resection was performed. To better understand this particular anatomy, a three‐dimensional (3D) reconstruction was performed a posteriori. This technique is already commonly used in the preoperative planning of pulmonary segmentectomy. Here, we have shown its interest in a lung malformative context.

BackgroundScreening for anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearranged non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is crucial for identifying patients eligible for targeted therapy. The FDA‐approved ALK (D5F3) immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay, used with the OptiView Amplification Kit, demonstrates excellent sensitivity and specificity in detecting these patients. However, the clinical significance of resulting focal positivity remains unclear, and ALK (D5F3) expression unrelated to ALK fusion is observed in some cases of neuroendocrine differentiation. This study aims to validate these findings with molecular testing and contribute to the accurate interpretation of ALK (D5F3) IHC results.MethodsA total of 1619 patients diagnosed with NSCLC and neuroendocrine carcinoma were evaluated using ALK (D5F3) IHC. For cases with strong but focal expression and those with diffuse strong positivity in neuroendocrine differentiation, ALK fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and/or next‐generation sequencing (NGS) tests were performed.ResultsSeven out of 1109 adenocarcinomas (0.6%) and six out of 289 squamous cell carcinomas (2.1%) exhibited strong focal ALK (D5F3) expression. Nine out of 209 neuroendocrine carcinomas (4.3%) showed homogeneously strong ALK (D5F3) expression. All these cases, including adenocarcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation and combined small cell carcinoma, were negative for ALK fusions by FISH and/or NGS.ConclusionThis study demonstrates that strong but focal ALK (D5F3) immunostaining and strong expression in neuroendocrine differentiation may not indicate ALK fusion. By considering these findings, we can improve the accuracy of patient selection for targeted therapy by minimizing false‐positive interpretations of ALK (D5F3) staining.

BackgroundPatients with early‐stage lung cancer and interstitial lung disease have a poorer prognosis than those without interstitial lung disease. This study aimed to compare the long‐term outcomes of lobar and sublobar resections in these patients.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 138 consecutive patients with clinical stage I non‐small cell lung cancer and interstitial lung disease who underwent surgical treatment at two institutions between January 2010 and December 2020. Propensity score matching analysis was performed to adjust for baseline characteristics.ResultsThirty‐six patients underwent sublobar resection and 102 underwent lobar resection. The median follow‐up was 45.7 months. In all patients, 5‐year overall survival (OS) rates were 33.2% and 73.2%, and 5‐year recurrence‐free survival (RFS) rates were 24.2% and 60.1% in the sublobar and lobar resection groups, respectively (p < 0.01, <0.01). Death due to lung cancer and locoregional recurrence were significantly more frequent in the sublobar resection group than in the lobar resection group (p = 0.034, <0.01, respectively). On propensity score matching analysis, the 5‐year OS rates of the 19 matched pairs were 46.3% and 73.2%, and the RFS rates were 31.6% and 67.6% in the sublobar and lobar resection groups, respectively (p = 0.036, <0.01). The Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated a significant association between lobar resection and improved survival (p = 0.047).ConclusionThe patients in the lobar resection group had better survival rates than those in the sublobar resection group. In terms of long‐term prognosis, deliberately limited surgery may not be necessary for patients who tolerate lobectomy.

Background: Chemotherapy-induced anorexia is a common occurrence in patients undergoing treatment for advanced lung cancer. However, the relationship between chemotherapy-induced anorexia and weight loss during platinum-based chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors is unclear. This study explored the relationship between chemotherapy-induced anorexia and therapeutic outcomes in patients with stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer undergoing platinum-based chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Methods: The study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 106 patients with stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors between January 2019 and October 2022. The incidence of weight loss and its association with treatment efficacy was assessed in the chemotherapy-induced anorexia group. Chemotherapy-induced anorexia, nausea, and vomiting were evaluated using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v 5.0. Progression-free and overall survival were used to measure treatment efficacy.
Results: Chemotherapy-induced anorexia was observed in 13.2% of patients. These patients exhibited significant weight loss at 6 and 9 weeks after treatment initiation compared to those in the non-chemotherapy-induced anorexia group. Progression-free and overall survival were shorter in the chemotherapy-induced anorexia group than in the non-chemotherapy-induced anorexia group, but the difference was not statistically significant.
Conclusions: Chemotherapy-induced anorexia was associated with significant weight loss and reduced treatment efficacy in patients with stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer. These results highlight the importance of implementing robust supportive care for chemotherapy-induced anorexia to mitigate weight loss and uphold treatment effectiveness during platinum-based chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
背景:化疗诱发的厌食症是晚期肺癌患者接受治疗时经常出现的情况。然而,在铂类化疗联合免疫检查点抑制剂期间,化疗诱发的厌食与体重下降之间的关系尚不清楚。本研究探讨了接受铂类化疗联合免疫检查点抑制剂治疗的IV期非小细胞肺癌患者化疗诱发的厌食与治疗结果之间的关系:该研究回顾性审查了2019年1月至2022年10月期间接受铂类化疗和免疫检查点抑制剂治疗的106例IV期非小细胞肺癌患者的病历。评估了化疗诱发厌食组中体重减轻的发生率及其与疗效的关系。化疗引起的厌食、恶心和呕吐采用不良事件通用术语标准 v 5.0 进行评估。无进展生存期和总生存期用于衡量疗效:结果:13.2%的患者出现化疗引起的厌食。与非化疗诱发厌食组相比,这些患者在治疗开始后6周和9周体重明显下降。化疗诱发厌食组的无进展生存期和总生存期均短于非化疗诱发厌食组,但差异无统计学意义:化疗引起的厌食与IV期非小细胞肺癌患者体重明显下降和治疗效果降低有关。这些结果凸显了在铂类化疗联合免疫检查点抑制剂期间,对化疗诱发的厌食症实施强有力的支持护理以减轻体重减轻和维持治疗效果的重要性。

Chemotherapy-induced anorexia, nausea, and vomiting were evaluated using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v 5.0. Progression-free and overall survival were used to measure treatment efficacy.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Chemotherapy-induced anorexia was observed in 13.2% of patients. These patients exhibited significant weight loss at 6 and 9 weeks after treatment initiation compared to those in the non-chemotherapy-induced anorexia group. Progression-free and overall survival were shorter in the chemotherapy-induced anorexia group than in the non-chemotherapy-induced anorexia group, but the difference was not statistically significant.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Chemotherapy-induced anorexia was associated with significant weight loss and reduced treatment efficacy in patients with stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer. These results highlight the importance of implementing robust supportive care for chemotherapy-induced anorexia to mitigate weight loss and uphold treatment effectiveness during platinum-based chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors.</p>","PeriodicalId":23338,"journal":{"name":"Thoracic Cancer","volume":" ","pages":"1831-1841"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11367660/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141793612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
