MARCKSL1 promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells.

TL;DR: The results obtained in the current study suggested that MARCKSL1 promoted the progression of lung adenocarcinoma by regulating EMT and may have prognostic value and serve as a novel therapeutic target in lungAdenocARCinoma.

Validation of the Eighth Edition TNM Lung Cancer Staging System

TL;DR: The authors' external validation study confirms the prognostic accuracy of the 8th edition TNM lung cancer classification and demonstrates that IIIB, IIIC and IVA stage groups showed similar survival outcomes, and suggests further research for refinement.

PD-L1 Expression on Lung Cancer Stem Cells in Metastatic Lymph Nodes Aspirates.

TL;DR: The presence of CSCs with expression of PD-L1 in the metastatic LNs might suggest their immunogenic potential, and EBUS/TBNA is commonly used in diagnosis and staging of lung cancer, so the analysis of the cells in metastaticLNs may fit in “immunoscoring” before immunotherapy.

Nivolumab-induced Myocarditis Successfully Treated with Corticosteroid Therapy: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

TL;DR: Although nivolumab-induced myocarditis is rare, cardiologists should consider it when encountering patients treated with such a drug for malignant disease.

Cancer/testis antigens (CTAs) expression in resected lung cancer.

TL;DR: CTAs represent potential candidate targets for immunotherapy and their expression was closely correlated with tumor stage and high CTAG1B expression was an independent negative prognostic factor of lung ADC.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for the Revisions of the T Descriptors in the Forthcoming Eighth Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.
