Abstract
Introduction The exact mechanism responsible for inflammation in malignancy is not completely understood, but it is possible that interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays a major role in triggering and maintaining an inflammatory response. Aim To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the levels of IL-6 in the serum/plasma of lung cancer (LC) patients. Material and methods The researchers searched four databases up to September 11, 2022, to find studies that reported on IL-6 levels in LC patients compared to healthy controls (HCs). They calculated effect sizes using standardized mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). To evaluate the quality of each study, they used the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). They performed subgroup analysis, sensitivity analysis, meta-regression analysis, heterogeneity analyses, trial sequential analysis, and publication bias with the trim-and-fill method. Results The meta-analysis included 28 studies, and the results showed that the pooled SMD was 1.71 (95% CI: 1.22, 2.19; p < 0.00001; I2 = 98%), indicating that LC patients had significantly higher levels of IL-6 in their serum/plasma than HCs. Conclusions The study found that the publication year and quality score of the studies were positively associated with the level of IL-6, while the sample size was inversely related. The research suggests that measuring IL-6 levels in the blood could be useful for detecting and monitoring LC as it appears to be a reliable biomarker.

Abstract
To understand the effects of a high-fat diet (HFD) on lung cancer progression and biomarkers, we here used an inducible mutant epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-driven lung cancer transgenic mouse model fed a regular diet (RD) or HFD. The HFD lung cancer (LC-HFD) group exhibited significant tumor formation and deterioration, such as higher EGFR activity and proliferation marker expression, compared with the RD lung cancer (LC-RD) group. Transcriptomic analysis of the lung tissues revealed that the significantly changed genes in the LC-HFD group were highly enriched in immune-related signaling pathways, suggesting that an HFD alters the immune microenvironment to promote tumor growth. Cytokine and adipokine arrays combined with a comprehensive analysis using meta-database software indicated upregulation of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the LC-HFD group, which presented with increased lung cancer proliferation and metastasis; this was confirmed experimentally. Our results imply that an HFD can turn the tumor growth environment into an immune-related pro-tumorigenic microenvironment and demonstrate that CRP has a role in promoting lung cancer development in this microenvironment.

Abstract
Recent advances in the field of proteomics have allowed extensive insights into the molecular regulations of the cell proteome. Specifically, this allows researchers to dissect a multitude of signaling arrays while targeting for the discovery of novel protein signatures. These approaches based on data mining are becoming increasingly powerful for identifying both potential disease mechanisms as well as indicators for disease progression and overall survival predictive and prognostic molecular markers for cancer. Furthermore, mass spectrometry (MS) integrations satisfy the ongoing demand for in-depth biomarker validation. For the purpose of this review, we will highlight the current developments based on MS sensitivity, to place quantitative proteomics into clinical settings and provide a perspective to integrate proteomics data for future applications in cancer precision medicine. We will also discuss malignancies associated with oncogenic viruses such as Acquire Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and suggest novel mechanisms behind this phenomenon. Human Immunodeficiency Virus type-1 (HIV-1) proteins are known to be oncogenic per se, to induce oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stresses, and to be released from the infected or expressing cells. HIV-1 proteins can act alone or in collaboration with other known oncoproteins, which cause the bulk of malignancies in people living with HIV-1 on ART.

Serum and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Levels of Cytokines in Patients with Lung Cancer and Chronic Lung Disease: A Prospective Comparative Study. J Pers Med 2023; 13:998. [PMID: 37373987 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13060998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of chronic inflammation in the initiation and progression of carcinogenesis has been well-established in previous studies, particularly in the stages of malignant conversion, invasion, and metastasis. This study aimed to explore the potential correlation between the levels of cytokines in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) by comparing their levels between patients with lung cancer and those with benign lung diseases. The study measured the concentration of IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-12p70, in venous blood and BALF of a total of 33 patients with lung cancer and 33 patients with benign lung diseases. Significant differences were found between the two groups in various clinical parameters. The cytokine levels were significantly higher among patients with malignant disease, while the BALF analysis revealed higher cytokine levels compared with serum analysis. It was discovered that the levels of cancer-specific cytokines in the lavage fluid increased significantly sooner and were present at a greater concentration than those in the peripheral blood. After one month of treatment, the serum markers decreased significantly but slower in the lavage fluid. The differences between serum and BALF markers remained significant. It was observed that the highest correlation was among IL-6 (serum) and IL-6 (lavage), with a coefficient of 0.774 (p-value < 0.001), and IL-1 (serum) and IL-1β (lavage), with a coefficient value of 0.610 (p-value < 0.001). Other significant correlations among serum and lavage cytokines were observed between IL-6 (lavage) and IL-1 (serum) (rho = 0.631, p-value < 0.001) and CRP (rho = 0.428, p-value = 0.001), respectively. This study revealed significant differences and correlations in clinical parameters, serum markers, and BALF inflammatory markers between patients with lung cancer and those with benign lung pathologies. The results highlight the importance of understanding the inflammatory profiles of these conditions and could contribute to the development of targeted therapies or diagnostic approaches in the future. Further research is needed to validate these findings, explore their implications for clinical practice, and determine the diagnostic and prognostic value of these cytokines for lung cancer.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Identifying novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers is essential for improving patient outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the predictive role of cytokines from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in lung cancer diagnosis and prognosis. A prospective study was conducted on 33 patients with suspected lung cancer, divided into inflammatory and non-inflammatory BALF groups. Inflammatory markers in BALF were assessed, and their association with lung cancer risk was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) plot analysis, sensitivity and specificity percentages, and regression analysis. Statistically significant differences were observed between the inflammatory and non-inflammatory groups for several inflammatory markers, including IFN-gamma, IL-1b, IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-12p70. In the follow-up analysis, significant differences persisted for IFN-gamma, IL-1b, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6. ROC plot analysis revealed that IL-12p70 had the highest area under the curve (AUC) value (0.702), followed by IL-2 (0.682), IL-6 (0.620), IL-4 (0.611), TNF-alpha (0.609), IL-10 (0.604), IL-1b (0.635), and IFN-gamma (0.521). IL-6 showed the highest sensitivity (73%), and IL-1b had the highest specificity (69%). Regression analysis demonstrated that IL-6 (cut-off = 25 pg/mL) and IL-12p70 (cut-off = 30 pg/mL) had the highest odds ratios for lung cancer risk, at 5.09 (95% CI: 2.38-9.24, p < 0.001) and 4.31 (95% CI: 1.85-8.16, p < 0.001), respectively. Cytokines from BALF, particularly IL-6 and IL-12p70, show potential as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for lung cancer. Further studies with larger cohorts are warranted to confirm these findings and elucidate the clinical implications of these markers in lung cancer management.

Association Between Baseline C-Reactive Protein and the Risk of Lung Cancer: A Prospective Population-Based Cohort Study. Cancer Prev Res (Phila) 2022; 15:747-754. [PMID: 35896151 DOI: 10.1158/1940-6207.capr-21-0533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 07/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
C-reactive protein (CRP), a systemic marker of diagnosing chronic inflammation, has been associated with the incidence of multiple types of cancer. However, little is known about the impact of CRP on lung cancer incidence in Chinese population. A total of 97,950 participants without cancer at baseline (2006-2007) of the Kailuan Cohort Study were followed up. The concentration of plasma high-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) was tested for all participants at baseline interview. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the association between levels of hsCRP and incident lung cancer. During 8.7-year follow-up, 890 incident lung cancer cases occurred and were divided into three groups according to the level of hsCRP. The risk of incident lung cancer was significantly increased with elevated levels of hsCRP [HRMedium/Low, 1.21; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.03-1.42; HRHigh/Low, 1.42, 95% CI, 1.20-1.68; Ptrend < 0.001], compared with the low group after adjusting confounders. Moreover, after stratifying by BMI, the significantly positive associations between the hsCRP level and the risk of lung cancer were found among those with BMI < 24 (HRHigh/Low, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.18-1.94; Ptrend = 0.001) and BMI = 24-28 (HRHigh/Low, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.13-1.92; Ptrend = 0.003), but not among those with BMI ≥ 28 (HRHigh/Low, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.64-1.57; Ptrend = 0.991). There was an antagonistic interaction between hsCRP levels and BMI that contributed to development of lung cancer (Pinteraction = 0.049). In conclusion, these findings indicate a dose-dependent relationship between hsCRP and lung cancer risk among Chinese population, especially in nonobese participants, suggesting that CRP could serve as a potential biomarker for prediction of lung cancer risk and identification of high-risk population. PREVENTION RELEVANCE In this prospective population-based cohort study, we found an association between higher plasma hsCRP and an increased risk of developing lung cancer, with stronger associations observed among nonobese participants.

Abstract
Interleukins (ILs)—which are important members of cytokines—consist of a vast group of molecules, including a wide range of immune mediators that contribute to the immunological responses of many cells and tissues. ILs are immune-glycoproteins, which directly contribute to the growth, activation, adhesion, differentiation, migration, proliferation, and maturation of immune cells; and subsequently, they are involved in the pro and anti-inflammatory responses of the body, by their interaction with a wide range of receptors. Due to the importance of immune system in different organisms, the genes belonging to immune elements, such as ILs, have been studied vigorously. The results of recent investigations showed that the genes pertaining to the immune system undergo progressive evolution with a constant rate. The occurrence of any mutation or polymorphism in IL genes may result in substantial changes in their biology and function and may be associated with a wide range of diseases and disorders. Among these abnormalities, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can represent as important disruptive factors. The present review aims at concisely summarizing the current knowledge available on the occurrence, properties, role, and biological consequences of SNPs within the IL-1 family members.
