Summary

The current study will recruit lung cancer patients to measure tissue protein synthesis rates of non-small cell lung carcinomas and healthy lung tissue. The protein synthesis rates of healthy lung tissue will be compared to lung tumor tissue to establish the remodeling characteristics of healthy versus cancerous lung tissues. We will also examine whether tissue protein synthesis rates of non-small cell lung carcinomas are associated with various tumor- (i.e., size, subclassification) and patient-derived (i.e., inflammation, lung function, smoking status, and smoking history) parameters.
