    Promoters of ASCL1- and NEUROD1-Dependent Genes Are Specific Targets of Lurbinectedin in SCLC Cells

    Investigators focused on the neuroendocrine SCLC subtypes, SCLC-A and SCLC-N, whose transcription addiction was driven by ASCL1 and NEUROD1 transcription factors which targeted E-box motifs to activate up to 40% of total genes.

    Povidone Iodine Suppresses LPS-Induced Inflammation by Inhibiting TLR4/MyD88 Formation in Airway Epithelial Cells

    The authors explored the anti-inflammatory effects and underlying molecular mechanism of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) on lipopolysaccharide-stimulated airway epithelial cells and investigated whether nasal instillation of PVP-I could suppress mucosal inflammation in non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis mice.

    RSV-Induced Changes in a 3-Dimensional Organoid Model of Human Fetal Lungs

    Investigators sought to measure respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) replication, cytopathic effects, and protein expression in human lung organoids reproducing architecture and transcriptional profiles of human fetal lungs during the first trimester of gestation.

    Knockdown of Circ_0001679 Alleviates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced MLE-12 Lung Cell Injury by Regulating the miR-338-3p/Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1 Axis

    Researchers indicated that circ_0001679/miR-338-3p/MAPK1 axis may have played an important role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury.

    Mucin Distribution in Bronchiolar Adenoma/Ciliated Muconodular Papillary Tumor Reveals Organoid Differentiation Simulating the Normal Lung

    Investigators evaluated the distribution of MUC5AC and MUC5B in bronchiolar adenoma/ciliated muconodular papillary tumor for comparison with that seen in normal respiratory tract.

    Abstract

    Hypoxia-Induced PVT1 Promotes Lung Cancer Chemoresistance to Cisplatin by Autophagy via PVT1/miR-140-3p/ATG5 Axis

    Scientists analyzed the regulatory relationship of hypoxia and PVT1 and the mechanism of PVT1 in the hypoxia-induced chemoresistance process of lung cancer.

    Long Noncoding RNA LINC00518 Contributes to Proliferation and Metastasis in Lung Adenocarcinoma via the miR-335-3p/CTHRC1 Axis

    Investigators verified that the cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma could be inhibited by the knockdown of long intergenic nonprotein coding RNA 518 (LINC00518).

    Small Proline Rich Protein 1A Promotes Lung Adenocarcinoma Progression and Indicates Unfavorable Clinical Outcomes

    The effects of small proline rich protein 1A (SPRR1A) on lung cancer cells were tested through cellular experiments and the result demonstrated that knockdown of SPRR1A could suppress proliferation and invasion capacities of tumor cells, while overexpressing SPRR1A exerted opposite effects.

    Abstract

    Calreticulin (CALR)-Induced Activation of NF-ĸB Signaling Pathway Boosts Lung Cancer Cell Proliferation

    NF-ĸB transcriptional activity was found to be stimulated with CALR overexpression and reduced in CALR-deficient lung cancer cells, thereby clearly indicating CALR-dependent NF-ĸB activation.
