Scientists detail major mechanism lung cancers use to evade immune attack

by Weill Cornell Medical College Cancer cell experiencing endoplasmic reticulum stress. Credit: Ella Marushchenko (2018) A protein commonly found at high levels in lung cancer cells controls a major immunosuppressive pathway that allows lung tumors to evade immune attack, according to a study led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine. The discovery could hasten the development of...

Researchers develop novel method to identify and treat aggressive early-stage lung cancers

by The Mount Sinai Hospital Pro-invasive and indolence signature genes associated with tumor invasion at early-stage lung adenocarcinoma. Credit: Nature Communications (2022). DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-29230-7 Mount Sinai researchers have developed a novel method to identify aggressive early-stage lung cancers and target drugs known as aurora kinase inhibitors to tumors that are especially likely to respond to them. The...

Novel AI blood testing technology can identify lung cancers with high accuracy

by  Johns Hopkins University DELFI blood test identifies lung cancer using artificial intelligence to detect unique patterns in the fragmentation of DNA shed from cancer cells compared to normal profiles. Credit: Carolyn Hruban A novel artificial intelligence blood-testing technology developed by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center was found to detect over 90% of...
