Research Article: Integrative Analysis of Single-Cell and Bulk RNA Sequencing Reveals Prognostic Characteristics of Macrophage Polarization-Related Genes in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Abstract:
Lung cancer is a global health concern, being the most diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Among the various histological subtypes of lung cancer, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most frequent., According to the revised classification of lung cancer by the World Health Organization in , LUAD is categorized into adenomatous atypical hyperplasia (AAH), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA), and invasive adenocarcinoma (AI). Research has identified smoking as the major risk factor for LUAD, followed by air pollution, occupational exposure, and genetic predisposition.– While existing therapies such as surgical resection, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy have been used to treat advanced LUAD, their efficacy in improving the prognosis of patients is limited. Therefore, identifying novel characteristic genes and developing prognostic models may contribute to understanding the pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms of LUAD, as well as provide potential targets for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
