Air pollution, EGFR mutation, and cancer initiation

Swanton et al.(1) find that PM(2.5) exposure is associated with EGFR/KRAS-driven lung cancer incidence. PM(2.5) increases EGFR pre-mutated alveolar type II cell progenitor function and tumorigenic activity through interstitial macrophage-secreted IL-1β, providing potential prevention approaches to i...

Sumario:Swanton et al.(1) find that PM(2.5) exposure is associated with EGFR/KRAS-driven lung cancer incidence. PM(2.5) increases EGFR pre-mutated alveolar type II cell progenitor function and tumorigenic activity through interstitial macrophage-secreted IL-1β, providing potential prevention approaches to inhibit cancer initiation.
