Article Abstract
Sleeve and double-sleeve lobectomies are lung-sparing techniques for treating central lung cancers. However, if the tumour extends to involve the bronchi and vessels, lung auto-transplantation may be an alternative to pneumonectomy. Neoadjuvant therapy after surgery is the most common strategy for patients with extensive central lung cancer. Herein, we report a case of central lung cancer in a patient who underwent immunochemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy following lung auto-transplantation. A 68-year-old man with stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer and left upper lobe squamous cell carcinoma underwent neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy. Following partial regression, a multidisciplinary team decided on a back-table procedure with auto-lung transplantation after pneumonectomy to preserve pulmonary function. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was discharged after three weeks with no residual tumour or lymph node metastases. Lung auto-transplantation can be successfully performed in non-lung transplantation centres, potentially broadening treatment options for patients with central lung cancer.

S-nitrosylation of pVHL regulates β adrenergic receptor function.

The β-adrenergic receptor (βAR), a prototype G protein-coupled receptor, controls cardiopulmonary function underpinning O delivery. Abundance of the βAR is canonically regulated by G protein-coupled receptor kinases and β-arrestins, but neither controls constitutive receptor levels, which are dependent on ambient O. Basal βAR expression is instead regulated by the prolyl hydroxylase/pVHL-E3 ubiquitin ligase system, explaining O responsivity.

Background MRI-derived arrhythmogenic substrate, including late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and extracellular volume fraction (ECV), is indicative of sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk in nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The relative prognostic value of LGE and ECV remains unclear. Purpose To evaluate the performance of LGE and T1 mapping in predicting SCD in patients with DCM and to explore clinical implementation.

Background: Previous results from this phase 3 trial showed that progression-free survival among participants with previously untreated (epidermal growth factor receptor)-mutated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was significantly improved with amivantamab-lazertinib as compared with osimertinib. Results of the protocol-specified final overall survival analysis in this trial have not been reported.
Methods: We randomly assigned, in a 2:2:1 ratio, participants with previously untreated -mutated (exon 19 deletion or L858R substitution), locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC to receive amivantamab-lazertinib, osimertinib, or lazertinib.
Background: Actinomyces graevenitzii is a relatively uncommon Actinomyces species, which is an oral species and predominantly recovered from respiratory locations [1,2]. It is a gram-positive anaerobic bacteria or microaerobic filamentation bacteria, which can induce pyogenic and granulomatous inflammation characterized by swelling and concomitant pus, sinus formation, and the formation of yellow sulfur granules. All tissues and organs can be infected; the most common type involves the neck and face (55%), followed by the abdominal and pelvic cavities (20%).

Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) is a critical clinical condition with high mortality, necessitating the development of more effective therapeutic strategies. Rho Guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDP) beta (ARHGDIB) has been shown to exert protective effects against noxious stimuli in various disease models.
Objective: In this study, we investigated whether ARHGDIB knockdown had a protective effect on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced injury in alveolar epithelial cells and elucidated its underlying molecular mechanisms.
