Driver gene mutation is one of the most important cause of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), as well as the drug target of target therapy. Patients with different driver mutations have different sensitivity to target therapy drug. So it is crucial to select target drug according to respective driver mutation. Nowadays more and more driver mutation detection come into clinical use for the guidance of NSCLC target therapy as well as more detection methods and commercial reagents were developed and utilized. Clinical and laboratory staff should be more cautious to select appropriate detection targets and reagents. Therefore, the relative target driver mutation and detection reagents in target therapy of NSCLC were reviewed in this paper, according to the China National Medical Products Administration, in order to provide reference for better selection of adequate methods and reagents as well as provide advice for personalized therapy of NSCLC patients.

Influenza is a worldwide infectious disease caused by influenza virus. It has posed great challenges on public health and social stability since 1918. At present, vaccination is the most effective way to prevent and control influenza epidemics. Broad-spectrum antiviral drugs and neutralizing antibodies against influenza virus have been widely studied in recent years. Hemagglutinin (HA), which is on the surface of influenza virus, plays an important role in the stage of viral invasion into host cells. It is the main effective antigenic component of current influenza vaccines, as well as the main target of broad-spectrum neutralizing antibodies and broad-spectrum antiviral drugs. This review summarized the progress in the development of novel influenza vaccines, neutralizing antibodies, and antiviral drugs based on influenza virus HA, as well as other prevention and control measures, hoping to present new ideas for future influenza prevention and control.
