Abstract Anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 therapy, which is one of the most promising cancer therapies, is licensed for treating various tumors. PD‐L1, which is expressed on the surface of cancer cells, leads to the inhibition of T lymphocyte activation and immune evasion if it binds to the receptor PD‐1 on cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 antibodies inhibit interactions between PD‐1 and PD‐L1 to restore antitumor immunity. Although certain patients achieve effective responses to anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 therapy,...

Abstract Despite the availability of various diagnostic procedures, a tissue biopsy is still indispensable for the routine diagnosis of lung cancer. However, inaccurate diagnoses can occur, leading to inefficient cancer management. In this context, utilization of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) may serve as diagnostic tools as liquid biopsies, and as biomarkers to better understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the progression of cancer. In this context, we identified miR‐590‐5p as a potential...
