Role of PARP1-Mediated Autophagy in EGFR-TKI Resistance in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

The authors explored the role of PARP1-mediated autophagy in the progression of tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy. PARP1-mediated autophagy was evaluated in vitro by CCK-8 assay, clonogenic assay, immunofluorescence, and western blot in the HCC-827, H1975, and H1299 cells treated with icotinib, rapamycin, and AZD2281 alone or in combination.

CCL7 Recruits cDC1 to Promote Antitumor Immunity and Facilitate Checkpoint Immunotherapy to Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Researchers demonstrated that CCL7 facilitated anti-PD-1 therapy for the KrasLSL−G12D/+Tp53fl/fl and the KrasLSL−G12D/+Lkb1fl/fl NSCLC mouse models by recruiting conventional DC 1 into the TME to promote T cell expansion.

Therapeutic Targeting of Metadherin Suppresses Colorectal and Lung Cancer Progression and Metastasis

Using genetically modified mouse models of spontaneous colorectal and lung cancers, researchers found that MTDH promotes cancer progression by facilitating Wnt activation and by inducing cytotoxic T cell exhaustion, respectively.

Altered Mitochondria Functionality Defines a Metastatic Cell State in Lung Cancer and Creates an Exploitable Vulnerability

Metastasis-derived cell lines in vitro and metastases analyzed ex vivo from an autochthonous lung cancer mouse model had lower mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced mitochondrial functionality than non-metastatic primary tumors.

Glutathione S‑Transferase ω 1 Promotes the Proliferation, Migration and Invasion, and Inhibits the Apoptosis of Non‑Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells, via the JAK/STAT3 Signaling Pathway

Scientists investigated the role of glutathione S‑transferase ω 1 (GSTO1) in non‑small cell lung cancer and to determine the potential molecular mechanism. GSTO1 expression levels in A549 cells were knocked down using short hairpin RNA and GSTO1 overexpression in H2122 cells was achieved using cDNA constructs.
