Are non-smokers really safe?


Cancer is a deadly disease and if not detected early it can be very dangerous and fatal. Very few people have recovered from cancer and once you reach the 3rd stage it is close to impossible. Cancer in all types is dangerous be it lung cancer, blood cancer, prostate cancer etc. Cancer does not just damage the particular organ but kills the person as a whole. Recently many treatments have been started for these types of cancer and awareness has spread too. People have made lifestyle change like quitting smoking and as a result the rate of smokers has reduced in the Unites states. But this is again a problem as doctors say that this reduction in smokers may be more dangerous as it has become more difficult to diagnose a person with lung cancer. Researchers even say that more people may die as they have reduced smoking or quit smoking and as a result they do not quality for low dose CT scan and ultimately the cancer does not get detected. Now the situation is such that there are certain

Exome Sequencing Corroborates Parkinson’s Risk Gene In Hereditary Lung Cancer


As per a research report found in the American Journal of Human Genetics, persistent alteration in a gene which contributes to Parkinson’s disease, is also a likely contributor to genetic lung cancer risk. The research and its conclusions: Scientists from Wisconsin Medical College and other centers chose three members of a family that frequently suffered from lung cancer, conducted exome sequencing on them, and found mutations in PARK 2, which is a gene relating to the ubiquitin ligase enzyme involved in biological changes such as metabolism and stress response, and  cell growth regulation. Mutations which are of withdrawing nature, are found to be connected to the initial stage of Parkinson’s disease, though the gene’s possible excessive growth suppression might mean that these genetic minor malfunctions are likely to cause cancer. The study was repeated on three other members of the same family only to corroborate the earlier observations. They found that the genes of the sec

Harnessing TCells To Beat Lung Cancer


It all started with a repetitive coughing syndrome in 2007for Paterson, 27. Never a smoker, and always in the best of health, she had the least inkling that her ailment would be diagnosed as lung cancer. Her physicians too were in utter surprise and shock when it turned out to be cancer. The confirmation came after four years of battle in the diagnostic stage itself, by which time, true to the name, the lung cancer had spread cancerously. It was Stage IV cancer for which the recovery rate is very thin, with only 1 percent living for 5 years after diagnosis. Last November, Paterson placed herself on a treatment-cum-clinical trial of medicines called immunotherapies. These are drugs that don’t attack cancer directly; on the other hand, they fight the disease by strengthening the body’s immune system fight tumors and by attacking the proteins that conceal the disease from T Cells. Flutter in the industry: As immunotherapies and their drugs begin to gain popularity owing to their like
