Researchers Identify Key Mechanism in Human Lung Development Oct. 31, 2024 — Researchers have shown that the IGFBP3 protein plays a relevant role in human lung development. The results of the ...

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common form of lung cancer, accounting for 80 to 85% of all cases of lung cancer. There are different stages of NSCLC, ranging from 0 to 4; ...

Case reports in the literature describe acute and chronic lung impairment secondary to BHO dabbing, such as pneumonitis, pneumonia, and acute hypoxemic lung failure. Dabbing also results in ...

To understand these complex interactions, we measure the density of different cell types in the stroma using immunohistochemistry techniques on tumor samples from lung cancer patients. We incorporate ...

How Do Opdivo and Opdivo Qvantig Work for Lung Cancer? Some cancer cells have what are called checkpoint proteins on their cell surface. The immune cells in our bodies also have proteins on their ...

Lung cancer liver metastases are tumors that form in the liver from cancer cells that have broken away from the primary cancer and spread through the blood or lymphatic system. The liver is a common ...

A lung biopsy involves the removal of tissue or growths from the lungs. A doctor will use special devices, such as a fine needle, to remove the sample. A lung biopsy can help diagnose lung ...

Many of these advances have been made by doctors and scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). We spoke with MSK thoracic oncologist and early drug development specialist Helena Yu, ...

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a major oncogenic protein, and thus EGFR-targeting therapies are widely used in patients with various types of cancer, including lung cancer. However, ...

In summary, we demonstrate the development of a novel alveolar organoid model and use it to identify effectors of SFTPC maturation necessary for AT2 health. Disorders of surfactant protein biology ...
