While cigarette smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, there has been an increase in nonsmoking related lung cancers, suggesting additional genetic and environmental interact...
Mucus production is also increased by these inflammatory mediators, further linking airway inflammation to an important mechanism of lung cancer. A greater understanding of the molecular and cellular pathobiology that distinguishes smokers with lung cancer from smokers with and without COPD is needed to ...
