HEALTH: Scientists find genes that increase lung cancer risk

An international research team has identified two genetic variations that appear to increase a person’s risk of developing lung cancer by up to 60 percent, they reported on Sunday. In April the same researchers identified another gene that raised lung cancer risk and they said their latest finding was relevant for both smokers and non-smokers. “We are looking at differences in the DNA that makes you more or less likely to develop lung cancer,” said Paul Brennan, a cancer epidemiologist at the World Health Organisation’s International Agency for Research on Cancer. “The idea is if you can identify genes then that might indicate why people develop lung cancer.”

Lung Cancer Genes' Discovery Might Speed Treatment (Update1)

Lung cancer's growth and lethal spread may be tied to more than two dozen mutated genes, according to a study that may help doctors identify effective drugs.

Carbon Nanotubes Detect Lung Cancer Markers in the Breath

Using an array of nanotube devices, each coated with a different organic material, researchers at the Israel Institute of Technology have developed diagnostic system that may be able to diagnose lung cancer simply by sampling a patient's breath. The results of this study, which was led by Hossam Haick, Ph.D., appear in the journal Nano Letters.
