Lung cancer has the highest incidence and mortality of any cancer in the world. In recent years, with the development of microbial detection technology, the intratumor microbiota has gradually become a hot spot and frontier in the field of lung cancer research. Studies have found that the microbiota present in tumors can influence the development of lung cancer in a variety of ways. In addition, the intratumor microbiota can be used as a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis assessment of lung cancer, and the regulation of the intratumor microbiota of lung cancer is expected to become a new type of lung cancer treatment. In this paper, we reviewed the latest research progress on the relationship between intratumor microbiota and lung cancer, summarized the origin and characteristics of intratumor microbiota, discussed the mechanism of its influence on the occurrence and development of lung cancer, and explored its potential applications in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of lung cancer.

Objective In this study,Knoevenagel derivatives of curcumin were synthesized,and their oil-water partition coefficient were determined.Our aim is to provide an experimental basis for further development of curcumin derivatives.Methods Two Knoevenagel derivatives of curcumin,including 4-(thiophen-2-ylidene)curcumin(3a)and 4-(pyridine-4-ylidene)curcumin(3b),were obtained by using the methylene group of curcumin as the modification site and purified by column chromatography.The structures of these derivatives were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR),infrared(IR)and high-resolution liquid mass spectrometry(HRLC-MS).The oil-water partition coefficient of the derivatives in n-octanol aqueous solution was determined by quantitative analysis using HPLC.Results Knoevenagel derivatives of curcumin were successfully synthesis.The oil-water partition coefficients(lgPap)of curcumin derivatives 3a and 3b are 0.96 and 0.82,respectively.Compared with the oil-water partition coefficient of curcumin(lgPap=3.85),it suggested that curcumin derivatives showed better water solubility than curcumin.Conclusion Compared to the curcumin prototype,Knoevenagel derivatives of curcumin increased water solubility and improved bioavailability.Thus,it may provide experimental basis for introducing heteroarylene moiety of the methylene position of curcumin to enhance pharmacological activity.
