Chronic inflammation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and lung cancer.

Current opinion in pulmonary medicine - 1 Jul 2009

Lee Gina, Walser Tonya C, Dubinett Steven M

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Smoking is a major risk factor for lung cancer, which is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths both in the USA and worldwide. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema are comorbid conditions often found in lung cancer patients. The inflammatory pathways that link chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, emphysema, and lung cancer likely involve genetic and epigenetic modulations...
