Lung Cancer Modeling

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and is classified into two major types: non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Common modeling approaches include transgenic technologies, carcinogen exposure, and patient-derived tumor xenografts, which effectively mimic tumor formation and metastasis in the lungs. These models are widely used in the study of immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and early diagnostic biomarkers for lung cancer.
