Mucin glycoprotein can promote tumor-cell invasion metastasis and modulate the immune recognition of cancer. This study aimed to elucidate the clinical significance of mucin gene overexpression in lung cancer. We collected 60 lung cancer samples and paired non-tumorous lung portions of varying types

## Abstract Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Tobacco smoking is the main risk factor for lung cancer. Less than 20% of smokers develop lung cancer in their lifetime, however, indicating individual variations in lung cancer risk. Pro‐inflammatory cytokines produced
## Abstract Laboratory‐based studies showed that host immune genes could influence the prognosis of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Therefore, genetic polymorphisms in host immune genes may serve as predictors for NSCLC clinical outcome. To test the hypothesis that functional single nucleotide
## Abstract The __HER2__ oncogene, which encodes the tyrosine kinase receptor, is commonly overexpressed in several types of cancer. Treatment using a humanized monoclonal antibody bound to __HER2__ product is becoming standard therapy for advanced breast cancer. Overexpression occurs in approximat
Docetaxel (DOC), a member of the taxane family of anticancer drugs, binds to tubulin and produces unnaturally stable microtubules that induce cell death. DOC is used clinically alone or in combination with other compounds to treat advanced stages of cancer. We have treated the human lung cancer cell
