Single-cell atlas reveals a pro-metastatic RELB+ neutrophil-myeloid subset underlying lymph node metastasis in EGFR-wildtype LUAD

The study highlights a pro-metastatic ELANE + neutrophil subpopulation, with RELB acting as its primary transcriptional regulator. The RELB signature may serve as a biomarker for prognosis and treatment response prediction, indicating a potential target for precision treatment in EGFR wildtype LUAD.

Abstract

The study highlights a pro-metastatic ELANE + neutrophil subpopulation, with RELB acting as its primary transcriptional regulator. The RELB signature may serve as a biomarker for prognosis and treatment response prediction, indicating a potential target for precision treatment in EGFR wildtype LUAD.
