EGFR and non-small cell lung carcinoma: This study investigates novel ultrasound (US) sensitive siRNA-loaded nanobubbles (siRNA-NBs) to explore the relationship between PDLIM5 mediated autophagy and drug resistance development using epidermal growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
