Background : Lung cancer is one of the most common malignancy in the world. Types of lung cancer are Non small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Subtypes of Non small cell lung cancer are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and large cell carcinoma. Knowing the type of lung cancer is important in determining both treatment and prognosis. Recently, due to newly developed anti-cancer drugs, squamous cell carcinoma has relatively poor prognosis than non-squamous cell carcinoma. Case : We report a squamous cell lung cancer case treated with allergen removed Rhus verniciflua Stokes (aRVS) extract. The patients initially diagnosed stage squamous cell lung carcinoma, but she refused recommended operation. She initiated aRVS extract monotherapy in October. 2006. The follow up Computed tomography in March. 2007, she diagnosed stable disease of tumor response on aRVS treatment. However, this case was lost to follow up for 6 months while she was treated with tomotherapy. In October 2007, she came back to our cancer center after diagnosed stage IV metastasized lung to lung, and aRVS monotherapy was restarted. She had survived 2 years after metastasis of squamous cell lung carcinoma. Conclusion : Allergen removed Rhus verniciflua Stokes(aRVS) sucessfully prolonged overall survival of a squamous cell lung cancer patient.

Knowledge of molecular pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer has increased remarkably and changed the principles of treatment, especially during the past decade. These advancements have been limited mainly to adenocarcinoma of the lung. Recently, genetic alterations in squamous cell lung cancer (SQCLC) have been detailed and positive results of clinical trials using agents targeting these changes have indicated the potential for improved treatment outcomes for SQCLC.

Objectives: This study employed proteomic profiling to identify specific tumor markers that might improve early diagnosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: Serum samples were isolated from 30 patients with stage I lung squamous cell carcinoma and 30 age-and gender-matched healthy controls, and proteomic profiles were obtained by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry. Results: Three highly expressed potential tumor markers were identified in the sera of stage I lung squamous cell carcinoma patients, with molecular weights of 3261.69, 3192.07, and 2556.92 Da. One protein peak with molecular weight 3261.69 Da was chosen as the candidate biomarker and identified as a fibrinogen alpha chain through a search of the IPI, NCBI or SWISS-PROT protein databases. Conclusion: As a potential tumor biomarker, fibrinogen alpha chain may be applicable for the early diagnosis and prognosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma patients.

폐의 기저세포양 편평세포암은 2015년 WHO 분류체계에서 편평세포암의 한 아형으로 분류되었고 폐암에서는 드물기에 잘 알려지지 않은 유형이다. 저자들은 두 기저세포양 편평세포암 증례를 보고하고 이들의 전산화단층촬영 영상소견을 명시하고자 한다. 85세 그리고 68세의 기저세포양 편평세포암을 가진 환자가 내원하여 수술적 절제를 시행 받았다. 전산화단층 촬영에서 두 병변은 각각 3.1과 2.8 cm 크기로 경계가 좋으며, 둥글면서 소엽상 경계였고 내부는 괴사를 시사하는 저음영이 풍부하였다. 후자는 수술 후 20개월 동안 추적 관찰하였고 전산화단층촬영에서 재발은 없었다. 비록 드문 아형의 폐암이지만 이러한 전산화단층촬영 소견을 공유한다면 기저세포양 편평세포암을 고려해 볼 수 있겠다.

Objective : The aim of the present study is to derive further studies evaluating the effectiveness of oriental medical treatment on recurred squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. We present a case of recurred squamous cell lung carcinoma patient who has survived more than 7 years. Method : We followed all treatments and examinations. We prescribed the patient take Hang-Am-Dan (HAD) three times a day for 6 years. Computed tomography (CT) was performed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy. Results : The patient has survived for over 7 years. CT showed stable state (SD). Conclusion : This case may give us a possibility of that oriental medical treatment offers potential benefits for patients with recurred squamous cell lung carcinoma.

Mixed squamous cell and glandular papilloma of the lung is an extremely rare benign epithelial tumor showing a mixture of squamous and glandular epithelium. Here, we report a case of mixed squamous cell and glandular papilloma that presented as a solitary nodule in the left lower lobe of a 64-year-old woman. Chest computed tomography demonstrated a lobulated mass in the basal segment of the left lower lobe. The patient underwent a lobectomy under the suspicion of lung malignancy. The histopathological diagnosis was mixed squamous cell and glandular papilloma.

Squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma are the major histological types of non-small cell lung cancer. Because they differ on the basis of histopathological and clinical characteristics and their relationship with smoking, their etiologies may be different; for example, different tumor suppressor genes may be related to the genesis of each type. We used microarray data to construct three regulatory networks to identify potential genes related to lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma and investigated the similarity and specificity of them. In the network, some of the observed transcription factors and target genes had been previously proven to be related to lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. We also found some new transcription factors and target genes related to SCC. The results demonstrated that regulatory network analysis is useful in connection analysis between lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

SCY1-like 1-binding protein 1 (SCYL1BP1) is a newly identified transcriptional activator domain containing protein with many unknown biological functions. Recently emerging evidence has revealed that it is a novel regulator of the p53 pathway, which is very important for the development of human cancer. However, the effects of SCYL1BP1 on human lung squamous carcinoma cell biological behavior remain poorly understood. In this study, we present evidence that SCYL1BP1 can promote the degradation of MDM2 protein and further inhibit the G1/S transition of lung squamous carcinoma cell lines. Functional assays found that reintroduction of SCYL1BP1 into lung squamous carcinoma cell lines significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion and tumor formation in nude mice, suggesting strong tumor suppressive function of SCYL1BP1 in lung squamous carcinoma. Taken together, our data suggest that the interaction of SCYL1BP1/MDM2 could accelerate MDM2 degradation, and may function as an important tumor suppressor in lung squamous carcinomas.

동시성 원발성 폐암은 전체 폐암의 1∼2%정도로 드문 암으로 술전 진단이 어렵고 수술 중이나 수술 후에 진단되는 경우가 대부분이다. 특히 동종 조직학적 특징을 나타내는 경우 진단이 어렵고 술전 폐에서 폐로 전이된 원격 전이로 오인될 수 있다. 본 교실에서는 수술 중 발견된 서로 다른 편편상피암을 가지는 동시성 원발성 폐암을 1례 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.
