Background: The tumor immune microenvironment influences evolution in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Yet, the prognostic value of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant NSCLC remains controversial. Additionally, studies Filipinos with EGFR-mutant remain unexplored to this day.

Programmed cell death is a highly regulated form of cell death, mostly distinguished by the activation of a family of cystein-aspartate proteases (caspases) that cleave various proteins resulting in morphological and biochemical changes characteristic of this form of cell death. Several recent studies have addressed the role of programmed cell death in inflammatory and chronic pain states. Casp...

(1) Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a significant health burden worldwide. This study aimed to determine the potentials of Refametinib, an orally bioavailable selective MEK1/2 inhibitor, increase effectiveness 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), common cytotoxic drug, in SCC4 line. (2) Methods: cells were treated with increasing concentrations 5-FU, either alone or combination Refametinib...
