Metabolomic profiling was applied to 1,259 sera collected within five years of a lung cancer diagnosis and 8,470 non-case sera from ever-smoker participants in the Prostate Lung Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Study to identify metabolic signatures for the earlier detection of lung cancer. We devel...
NAMPT plays a major role in NAD biosynthesis in many cancers and is an attractive potential cancer target. However, factors dictating therapeutic efficacy of NAMPT inhibitors (NAMPTi) are unclear. We report that neuroendocrine phenotypes predict lung and prostate carcinoma vulnerability to NAMPTi...

KRAS mutations are prevalent in lung cancer, but KRAS G12C inhibitors exhibit limited efficacy, partly due to metabolic adaptations, such as enhanced glutathione metabolism and increased glycolysis. Glutathione S-Transferase Zeta 1 (GSTZ1) is a metabolic enzyme that regulates cell metabolism. How...
Lung cancer are malignant tumors with high incidence and mortality rates, and a 5-year survival rate that depends on the stage at the time of diagnosis. Screening methods for lung cancer are becoming increasingly diverse, but existing approaches lack sensitivity or specificity for early lesions, ...
Hemolysis drives susceptibility to lung injury and predicts poor outcomes in diseases, such as malaria and sickle cell disease (SCD). However, the underlying pathological mechanism remains unknown. Here, we report that major facilitator superfamily domain containing 7C (MFSD7C) protects the lung ...
