Study on the Microbial Environment of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Based on Mycogenomics and Its Clinical Relevance

This study aims to uncover the characteristics of the fungal flora in non-small cell lung cancer, and to investigate the relationship between pulmonary fungi and the various pathological subtypes, stages, clinical features of non-small cell lung cancer, as well as patient prognosis. It seeks to provide new perspectives for a comprehensive understanding of non-small cell lung cancer, as well as new approaches for its early diagnosis and prognosis assessment.

This project intends to study the structural characteristics and clinical relevance of fungal microbiota in lung tissue of patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The project plans to collect 500 lung tissue samples from patients undergoing lung cancer surgery, build an ecological map of non-small cell lung cancer fungi through high-throughput sequencing, and simultaneously carry out traditional fungi culture to obtain culturable strain resources, so as to build a resource bank of non-small cell lung cancer fungi. By integrating clinicopathological information and follow-up data, using bioinformatics and statistical methods, key landmark fungi were screened, and the correlation between fungal community structure and different pathological subtypes, stages and clinical characteristics of non-small cell lung cancer was analyzed.
