Abstract excerpt
Brain metastasis (BM) is associated with poor prognosis in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation reportedly enhances the development of BM. However, the exact mechanism of how EGFR-mutant NSCLC contributes to BM remains unknown. Herein, we found the protein WNT5A, was significantly downregulated in BM tissues and EGFR-mutant samples. In...
