    Abstract Fu-Zheng-Qu-Xie (FZQX) decoction is a traditional Chinese herbal prescription for the treatment of lung cancer and exerts proapoptotic and immunomodulatory effects. It has been clinically suggested to be effective in improving the survival of postoperative early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), but the mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we used network pharmacology coupled with metabolomics approaches to explore the pharmacological action and effective mechanism of FZQX against the recurrence and metastasis of postoperative early-stage LUAD. Network pharmacology analysis showed that FZQX could prevent the recurrence and metastasis of postoperative early-stage LUAD by regulating a series of targets involving vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, estrogen receptor 1, sarcoma gene, epidermal growth factor receptor, and protein kinase B and by influencing the Ras, PI3K-Akt, and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways. In liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis, 11 differentially expressed metabolites, including PA(12:0/18:4(6Z,9Z,12Z,15Z)), PC(16:0/0:0)[U], LysoPC(18:1(11Z)), and LysoPC(18:0), were discovered in the FZQX-treated group compared to those in the model group before treatment or normal group. They were enriched in cancer metabolism-related signaling pathways such as central carbon metabolism in cancer, choline metabolism, and glycerol phospholipid metabolism. Collectively, our results suggest that the multicomponent and multitarget interaction network of FZQX inhibits the recurrence and metastasis of postoperative early-stage LUAD by activating the receptor signal transduction pathway to inhibit proliferation, induce cell apoptosis, inhibit aerobic glycolysis, and reprogram tumor lipid metabolism.

    Abstract Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) play an important role in the tumor-induced immunosuppressive microenvironment and have been linked with tumor development, proliferation, and resistance to treatment. Therefore, therapies that target MDSCs, such as sanguinarine (SNG), are now being considered potential treatments for lung cancer. However, the role of SNG in regulating the immune response in lung cancer is still not clear. In view of this, we evaluated the mechanism involved in the antitumor and immunoregulatory response to SNG therapy in a Lewis lung cancer (LLC) mouse model. The tumor mass and volume in the SNG treated LLC mouse model were significantly lower when compared with the control group (p < 0.05), indicating a good response to SNG. SNG also reduced the damage to the spleen, decreased the proportion of MDSCs, and increased the production of T helper 1 (Th1), T helper 2 (Th2), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL), macrophages, dendritic cells (DC) within the spleen. However, it did not affect the proportion of T helper 17 (Th17) and regulatory T cells (Treg). SNG also down-regulated the proportion of MDSCs in vitro and promoted their apoptosis, differentiation, and maturation. SNG was found to induce the differentiation of MDSCs into macrophages and DC through the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway in vitro, while it also decreased the expression of arginase-1 (Arg-1) anti-inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in MDSCs.SNG also reduced the inhibitory effect on the proliferation of CD8

    Abstract Lung cancer is a malignancy characterized by high morbidity and mortality, with lung adenocarcinoma being the most prevalent subtype. Our preliminary studies have demonstrated that the Juan-Liu-San-Jie (JLSJ) prescription, a Traditional Chinese Medicine prescription, possesses anti-lung adenocarcinoma cancer properties. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the therapeutic effects of the JLSJ prescription for lung adenocarcinoma remains incompletely elucidated. To address the knowledge gap, the present study employed network pharmacology to identify potential therapeutic targets. Specifically, the study utilized TCMSP, TCMID, and related references, as well as ChemMapper, to identify and predict the main active components and potential targets. Additionally, differentially expressed genes associated with the disease were obtained from the microarray dataset GSE19804 and GSE118370. The protein-protein Interaction network and Target-pathway network were then constructed. We also conducted Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses, and subsequently presented the top 20 enriched pathways. The results indicated that the anti-lung cancer effects of JLSJ prescription may be attributed to its ability to mediate apoptosis of tumor cells, potentially through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Then, a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted to validate the molecular mechanism predicted by network pharmacology. The findings of the in vivo study suggested that the JLSJ prescription could inhibit the growth of xenograft tumors of lung adenocarcinoma with fewer adverse effects. Also, the in vitro experiments corroborated that the JLSJ prescription could induce apoptosis of A549 cells. Furthermore, the upregulation of pro-apoptosis-related proteins and mRNAs, coupled with the downregulation of anti-apoptotic-related proteins and mRNAs, was observed. In conclusion, inducing apoptosis by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway was one of the underlying mechanisms by which the JLSJ prescription exerted its anti-lung adenocarcinoma effect.

    Abstract Background: Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. Upregulation of kinesin family member 15 (KIF15) expression has been observed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and high expression levels of KIF15 are associated with a poor prognosis in patients with NSCLC. However, to the best of our knowledge, the mechanisms by which KIF15 regulates apoptosis, migration and invasion in NSCLC remain unclear.
    Methods: Cell Counting Kit-8, flow cytometry and Transwell assays were performed to determine the proliferation, apoptosis and invasion of NSCLC cells, respectively. In addition, western blotting was used to detect the levels of phosphorylated (p-)c-Raf, p-ERK and p-MEK in NSCLC cells.
    Results: Downregulation of KIF15 expression markedly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of NSCLC cells through mediation of MMP2 and MMP9. In addition, downregulation of KIF15 markedly induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in NSCLC cells through regulation of active caspase 3, p27 Kip1 and cyclin D1. Furthermore, KIF15 knockdown notably decreased the levels of activating transcription factor 2, p-c-Raf, p-ERK and p-MEK in A549 and NCI-H460 cells. Finally, KIF15 knockdown notably inhibited the tumor growth of NSCLC in vivo.
    Conclusion: In conclusion, the present study indicated that downregulation of KIF15 expression was able to inhibit the tumorigenesis of NSCLC by inactivating Raf/MEK/ERK signaling. These findings may help improve the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC.

    Abstract BACKGROUND Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common type of lung cancer, which poses a serious threat to human life and health. -(-)Guaiol, an effective ingredient of many medicinal herbs, has been shown to have a high potential for tumor interference and suppression. However, knowledge of pharmacological mechanisms is still lacking adequate identification or interpretation. MATERIAL AND METHODS The genes of LUAD patients collected from TCGA were analyzed using limma and WGCNA. In addition, targets of (-)-Guaiol treating LUAD were selected through a prediction network. Venn analysis was then used to visualize the overlapping genes, which were further condensed using the PPI network. GO and KEGG analyses were performed sequentially, and the essential targets were evaluated and validated using molecular docking. In addition, cell-based verification, including the CCK-8 assay, cell death assessment, apoptosis analysis, and western blot, was performed to determine the mechanism of action of (-)-Guaiol. RESULTS The genes included 959 differentially-expressed genes, 6075 highly-correlated genes, and 480 drug-target genes. Through multivariate analysis, 23 hub genes were identified and functional enrichment analyses revealed that the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway was the most significant. Experiment results showed that -(-)Guaiol can inhibit LUAD cell growth and induce apoptosis. Additional evidence suggested that the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway established an inseparable role in the antitumor processes of -(-)Guaiol, which is consistent with network pharmacology results. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that the effect of (-)-Guaiol in LUAD treatment involves the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, providing a useful reference and medicinal value in the treatment of LUAD.

    Abstract BACKGROUND Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the predominant histological type of lung cancer with high morbidity and mortality. Ferroptosis is regarded as a new pattern of programmed cell death concerned with the progression of lung cancer characterized by lipid peroxidation. Nevertheless, the prognostic role of ferroptosis-related genes for LUAD warrant to be explored. MATERIAL AND METHODS RNA sequencing and relevant clinical patient data were obtained from public-access databanks. A prognostic model was constructed through the LASSO Cox regression in the cancer genome atlas cohort. The diagnostic value of the prognostic model was further evaluated in the gene expression omnibus cohort. RESULTS Most of the ferroptosis-related genes (69.9%) were differentially expressed between tumor and adjacent non-cancerous tissues. 43 differentially expressed genes showed a close association with the prognosis of LUAD patients (adjusted p-value <0.05). An 18-gene signature was built and applied to assign patients into high vs low-risk groups. Compared with the high-risk group, patients defined as the low-risk group suffered significantly prolonged OS. Both uni- and multivariate analyses demonstrated that the signature-based score served as a crucial role in influencing the OS of LUAD patients (hazard ratio >1, p<0.001). The immunity-related signaling pathway was enriched in the functional analysis and the infiltration of the immune cells showed a great difference between groups. CONCLUSIONS The predictive model could be applied for prognostic prediction for LUAD. Targeting ferroptosis could be a possible curative strategy against LUAD, and immunomodulation may be one of the potential mechanisms.

    Abstract Background: Accurately predicting the risk of recurrence in stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after resection is critical in the treatment process. This study aimed to establish a novel nomogram to identify patients with a risk of disease progression in stage I-IIIA lung cancer based on clinical characteristics, peripheral T-lymphocyte subsets, and CD16+56 natural killer (NK) cells.
    Methods: A total of 306 NSCLC patients from Shanghai Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between 2010 and 2020 who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria between January 2011 and December 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were randomly assigned to the training cohort (206 patients) and the validation cohort (100 patients). A nomogram model was developed based on the results of multivariate Cox regression in the training cohort. The optimal cut-off values were determined by X-tile software. The bootstrap method was used to validate the nomogram. Receiver operating characteristics curves (ROC) and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) were used to compare prognostic factors. The concordance index (C-index) was calculated to determine the accuracy of the nomogram in predicting disease-free survival (DFS).
    Results: Gender, drinking history, TNM stage, and CD4
    Conclusions: We developed a prognostic model which provided individual prediction of DFS for stage I-IIIA NSCLC patients after resection. This practical prognostic tool may help oncologists in clinical treatment planning.

    Abstract Tumor-associated macrophage (TAM)-mediated angiogenesis in the tumor microenvironment is a prerequisite for lung cancer growth and metastasis. Therefore, targeting TAMs, which block angiogenesis, is expected to be a breakthrough in controlling the growth and metastasis of lung cancer. In this study, we found that Sanguinarine (Sang) inhibits tumor growth and tumor angiogenesis of subcutaneously transplanted tumors in Lewis lung cancer mice. Furthermore, Sanguinarine inhibited the proliferation, migration, and lumen formation of HUVECs and the expression of CD31 and VEGF by regulating the polarization of M2 macrophages

    Abstract Objective: Ethnopharmacological relevance: Sanguinarine (SAG), a natural benzophenanthridine alkaloid derived from the root of Sanguinaria canadensis Linn. (Bloodroot), possesses a potential anticancer activity. Lung carcinoma is the chief cause of malignancy-related mortality in China. Non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is the main subtype of lung carcinoma and accounts for about eighty-five percent of this disease. Current treatment in controlling and curing NSCLC remains deficient.
    Aim: The role and underlying mechanism of SAG in repressing the growth and metastasis of NSCLC were explored.
    Materials and methods: The role of SAG in regulating the proliferation and invasion of NSCLC cells was evaluated in vitro and in a xenograft model. After treatment with SAG, Fe
    Results: SAG exhibited a dose- and time-dependent cytotoxicity in A549 and H3122 cells. SAG treatment effectively repressed the growth and metastasis of NSCLC in a xenograft model. We, for the first time, verified that SAG triggered ferroptosis of NSCLC cells, as evidenced by increased Fe
    Conclusion: SAG inhibits the growth and metastasis of NSCLC by regulating STUB1/GPX4-dependent ferroptosis.

    Abstract Yu-Ping-Feng (YPF) formula is a classical prescription used for enhancing the body's immunity function in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). In clinical practice, the YPF formula has been reported to exhibit antilung cancer and immunomodulatory effect. However, the relationship between them remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the antilung cancer effect of the YPF formula and its immune-related mechanisms. The C57BL/6 tumor-bearing mice model was established and randomly divided into the YPF group and the control group. Tumor volume, spleen weight, and survival in both groups were measured and evaluated during 28 days of consecutive intervention. Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of immune cell subsets. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) were induced in vitro from bone marrow cells. After intervention by the YPF formula, CCK-8 and flow cytometry analyses were performed to detect proliferation and apoptosis of MDSCs. A coculture system containing T cells and MDSCs was established to further study the role of MDSCs in the regulation of T-cell subsets proportion by the YPF formula. The expressions of MDSCs-related genes and proteins were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. The results showed the YPF formula inhibited tumor growth, reduced spleen weight, and prolonged the survival of mice. Besides, the proportions of MDSCs subsets and Regulatory
