Lung cancer is one of the most lethal cancers globally, primarily due to delayed diagnosis and lack of specific and effective therapy. Increased lactate production and consumption, along with cysteine metabolic reliance, are features identified in NSCLC in our recent studies. Cancer metabolic remodeling leads to excessive ROS production, triggering oxidative stress, promoting angiogenesis, causing cellular and ...

Abstract Lung cancer remains a global health challenge, with late-stage diagnosis and treatment resistance contributing to its devastating impact. In the past two decades, lung cancer therapy has witnessed notable progress, transitioning from cytotoxic treatments to more tolerable and highly effective targeted regimens, particularly tailored to specific molecular subtypes. Despite these advancements, challenges...
