    IL-37 Protects against Airway Remodeling by Reversing Bronchial Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition via IL-24 Signaling Pathway in Chronic Asthma

    BEAS-2B cells were exposed to IL-24, and cell migration was assessed by wound healing and Transwell assays. The expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related biomarkers was evaluated after the cells were stimulated with IL-24 with or without IL-37.

    AIM2 Upregulation Promotes the Metastatic Progression and Pd-L1 Expression in Lung Adenocarcinoma

    Scientists showed that the mRNA levels of absence in melanoma 2 (AIM2), one of the inflammasome members, were extensively upregulated in primary tumors compared to normal tissues derived from the TCGA lung adenocarcinoma database.

    ELANE Promotes M2 Macrophage Polarization by Down-Regulating PTEN and Participates in the Lung Cancer Progression

    The effects of neutrophil elastase (ELANE)-mediated M2 macrophages on lung cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and tumor growth were investigated by in vitro and in vivo experiments after co-culture of macrophage conditioned medium and lung cancer cell lines A549 and H1299.
