Abstract Lung cancer is the second most frequently diagnosed and leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Tumour ecosystems feature diverse immune cell types. Myeloid cells, in particular, are prevalent have a well-established role promoting disease. In our study, we profile approximately 900,000 cells from 25 treatment-naive patients with adenocarcinoma squamous-cell carcinoma by single-cell spatial transcriptomics. We note an inverse relationship between anti-inflammatory macrophages NK cells/T reduced cytotoxicity within tumour. While observe similar type composition both carcinoma, detect significant differences co-expression various checkpoint inhibitors. Moreover, reveal evidence transcriptional “reprogramming” tumours, shifting them towards cholesterol export adopting foetal-like signature which promotes iron efflux. Our multi-omic resource offers high-resolution molecular map tumour-associated macrophages, enhancing understanding their tumour microenvironment.

(1) Background: In recent years, immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment landscape of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), representing a therapeutic breakthrough in this field. Antacid agents such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and histamine-2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) are commonly prescribed for extended periods NSCLC patients, these drugs have potential to modify efficacy immune checkpoint (ICIs). (2) Materials Methods: Herein, we conducted systematic review meta-analysis investigate impact PPIs H2RAs on progression-free survival (PFS) overall (OS) among patients receiving metastatic NSCLC. Effect measures OS were Hazard Ratios (HRs) 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs), which extracted from available studies. Forest plots used assess HRs describe relationship between specified cohorts patients. (3) Results: Six studies included analysis, involving 2267 The pooled PFS 1.4 (95% CI, 1.25-1.58) 1.29 1.17-1.43), respectively, suggesting that administration was negatively associated with OS.

Notch signaling, renowned for its role in regulating cell fate, organ development, and tissue homeostasis across metazoans, is highly conserved throughout evolution. The receptor ligands are transmembrane proteins containing epidermal growth factor-like repeat sequences, typically necessitating receptor-ligand interaction to initiate classical signaling transduction. Accumulating evidence indicates that the pathway serves as both an oncogenic factor a tumor suppressor various cancer types. Dysregulation of this promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition angiogenesis malignancies, closely linked proliferation, invasion, metastasis. Furthermore, contributes maintaining stem-like properties cells, thereby enhancing invasiveness. regulatory metabolic reprogramming microenvironment suggests pivotal involvement balancing suppressive effects. Moreover, implicated conferring chemoresistance cells. Therefore, comprehensive understanding these biological processes crucial developing innovative therapeutic strategies targeting signaling.
