Squamous cell lung cancer: from tumor genomics to cancer therapeutics.
Squamous cell lung cancer (SCC) represents an area of unmet need in lung cancer research. For the past several years, therapeutic progress in SCC has lagged behind the now more common non-small cell lung cancer histologic subtype of adenocarcinoma. However, recent efforts to define the complex biology underlying SCC have begun to bear fruit in a multitude of ways, including characterization of ...
متن کاملFunctional genomics in lung cancer and biomarker detection.
Lung cancer is a major health problem in the United States and throughout the developed world. Lung cancer causes 160,000 deaths in the United States compared with 231,000 deaths from chronic respiratory disease. Lung cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer in men and women, exceeding the combined total of colon, breast, and prostate cancer (1). Pulmonologists spend a substantial porti...
متن کاملAn emerging place for lung cancer genomics in 2013.
Lung cancer is a disease with a dismal prognosis and is the biggest cause of cancer deaths in many countries. Nonetheless, rapid technological developments in genome science promise more effective prevention and treatment strategies. Since the Human Genome Project, scientific advances have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of human cancers, including thoracic cancers. The latest, massi...
متن کاملPulmonary Actinomycosis Mimicking Lung Cancer
Herein, we reported on a case of solid type of pulmonary actinomycosis in a 10-year-old boy. He had productive cough for 40 days. Bronchoscopy was normal. Cmputed tomography revealed a solid large mass in the upper lobe of his left lung with mimicking malignant leisions. He was referred for surgery and underwent left upper lobectomy. Macroscopically, the specimen measured 13×9×5 cm and was crea...
متن کاملCancer genomics.
The draft human genome sequence and the dissemination of high throughput technology provides opportunities for systematic analysis of cancer cells. Genome-wide mutation screens, high resolution analysis of chromosomal abberations and expression profiling all give comprehensive views of genetic alterations in cancer cells. From these analyses will come a complete list of the genetic changes that...
