1 Our previous studies suggested that alpha5-nAChR mediates nicotine-induced lung cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Nicotine cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 subunit Homo sapiens
2 In vivo, alpha5-nAChR silencing inhibited the growth of lung tumors, especially in the context of nicotine exposure. Nicotine cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 subunit Homo sapiens
3 These results reveal that alpha5-nAChR silencing inhibits the progression of nicotine-related NSCLC, making this receptor a potential pharmacological target for the treatment of nicotine-related lung carcinogenesis. Nicotine cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 subunit Homo sapiens
4 These results reveal that alpha5-nAChR silencing inhibits the progression of nicotine-related NSCLC, making this receptor a potential pharmacological target for the treatment of nicotine-related lung carcinogenesis. Nicotine cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 subunit Homo sapiens
