With the continuous deepening of the concept of precision diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer, how to achieve higher efficiency and accuracy in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment pathways in clinical practice has become an important issue that urgently needs to be overcome. The current clinical difficulty lies in the fact that despite continuous advancements in imaging and molecular diagnostic technologies, there are still limitations in manual efficiency and subjective experience when it comes to massive data analysis and multi-scale feature extraction. Artificial intelligence (AI), especially algorithm systems based on deep learning, is an innovative technology capable of deeply empowering medical big data. This method utilizes algorithms such as convolutional neural networks, combined with radiomics, pathomics, and multi-modal data fusion analysis, demonstrating immense potential in early precise detection and benign-malignant differentiation of pulmonary nodules, digital pathological subtype recognition and non-invasive prediction of driver genes, precise 3D surgical planning and automatic delineation of radiotherapy target volumes, as well as dynamic risk warning during follow-up. This innovative technology provides a brand-new solution for realizing intelligent and individualized lung cancer diagnosis and treatment models. This consensus, based on the latest evidence from evidence-based medicine and combined with the development trends in the AI field and real-world clinical needs, was ultimately formed by gathering the consensus opinions of multidisciplinary experts in radiology, pathology, thoracic surgery, and other fields. The main content covers the application specifications of AI in the three core scenarios of lung cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the technical standards for data collection and algorithm validation, as well as the ethical and regulatory challenges faced at the current stage. It aims to clarify the applicable boundaries of AI as a clinical auxiliary decision support tool, providing scientific guidance and standardized exploration directions for peers currently engaged in or planning to carry out AI-assisted clinical diagnosis, treatment, and translation of lung cancer.

BACKGROUND:Apoptosis plays an important role in secondary brain injury.Therefore,to explore the pathophysiological mechanism of promoting nerve cell survival after traumatic brain injury provides a new direction and theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of traumatic brain injury. OBJECTIVE:To explore the expression changes of Lnx1 molecule in mammalian cortical neurons after brain injury and the possible mechanism involved in secondary brain injury. METHODS:Eighty adult SD rats were divided into 20 male and 20 female mice in sham operation group and 20 male and 20 female mice in traumatic brain injury group.The traumatic brain injury rat model was established by heavy falling method.At 6,12,24,48,and 72 hours after brain injury,the expression of related molecules in damaged cortical neurons was analyzed by RT-qPCR,western blot assay,and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The brain tissue of traumatic brain injury group was bleeding and obvious tissue injury could be observed.Water content of brain tissue increased after traumatic brain injury.(2)Compared with the sham operation group,the expression of Lnx1 in cortical neurons after traumatic brain injury increased significantly at 24 hours after injury.(3)After traumatic brain injury,the expression of PBK and BCR protein decreased,and the pro-survival factor ctgf increased.(4)These findings suggest that after traumatic brain injury,the expression of Lnx1 is up-regulated in neurons,which may be due to the decrease of the expression of its target molecules PBK and BCR,and further promote the expression of living factor ctgf,which has a protective effect on the damaged neurons.

To target the pivotal BCR/ABL oncoprotein in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are utilized as landmark achievements in CML therapy. However, TKI resistance and intolerance remain principal obstacles in the treatment of CML patients. In recent years, drug repositioning provided alternative and promising perspectives apart from the classical cancer therapies, and promoted anthelmintic mebendazole (MBZ) as an effective anti-cancer drug in various cancers. Here, we investigated the role of MBZ in CML treatment including imatinib-resistant CML cells. Our results proved that MBZ inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis in CML cells. We found that MBZ effectively suppressed BCR/ABL kinase activity and MEK/ERK signaling pathway by reducing p-BCR/ABL and p-ERK levels with ABL1 targeting ability. Meanwhile, MBZ directly targeted the colchicine-binding site of β-tubulin protein, hampered microtubule polymerization and induced mitosis arrest and mitotic catastrophe. In addition, MBZ increased DNA damage levels and hampered the accumulation of ataxia-telangiectasia mutated and DNA-dependent protein kinase into the nucleus. This work discovered that anthelmintic MBZ exerts remarkable anticancer effects in both imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant CML cells in vitro and revealed mechanisms underlying. From the perspective of drug repositioning and multi‐target therapeutic strategy, this study provides a promising option for CML treatment, especially in TKI-resistant or intolerant individuals.
