Monitoring treatment response in lung cancer patients with glycodelin
A DZL research team has discovered that the presence of the protein glycodelin in the blood indicates that a cancer therapy is failing. This leads to some interesting conclusions.

Still, about 45,000 Germans die annually from lung cancer due to late detection. This is set to change now. Scientists, with DZL involvement, have outlined the key points of a national early detection program that...
Lung cancer is considered the most frequently lethal tumor disease. DZL scientists have shown that the reprogramming of a specific group of white blood cells, known as tumor-associated macrophages, could be a promising approach for...
In collaboration with this year's Nobel Prize winner for physics, Ferenc Krausz, the Ludwig Maximilian University Hospital was the first to test the clinical application of the groundbreaking laser technology. The joint project “Laser4Life” started...
DZL scientist Prof. Dr. Silke Meiners investigates lung carcinomas. Her scientific findings show a link between cellular proteasome activity and a lack of response to immunotherapy in the treatment of lung cancer.
Professor Rajkumar Savai, MD, was awarded the Thoracic Oncology “Mid-Career Achievement Award” for his significant and meaningful contribution to thoracic oncology research at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) International Conference...
DZL researchers at Helmholtz Munich and their collaborators developed the Human Lung Cell Atlas using artificial intelligence (AI)-based techniques. This atlas elucidates the diversity of single lung cell types and allows learning about lung biology...
A Europe-wide project under the scientific leadership of DZL scientist Prof. Hans-Ulrich Kauczor aims to improve early lung cancer detection in all social groups.
DZL scientist Prof. Dr. Petros Christopoulos receives the 2022 Science Award of the German Cancer Society's Working Group for Internal Oncology (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Internistische Onkologie, AIO).
Numerous DZL scientists contributed to the new guideline on lung cancer prevention, diagnosis, therapy, and follow-up.
Fibrocytes are bone marrow-derived cells that have been shown to be important for wound healing. Yet, another role of fibrocytes has now been identified by scientists from the German Center for Lung Research, working at...
In a rare form of lung cancer, new molecular findings create the prerequisite for better understanding and therapeutic advances.
