Description

Yusuke Nakamura and co-authors report a 2026 case of lung cancer that made a digestive enzyme in large amounts. The patient, a man aged seventy-four, came in with belly pain. Scans found a large tumor blocking a right lung airway, and tissue tests showed squamous cell lung cancer that had spread.

Blood levels of the enzyme were very high, yet the glands that should make it looked sound. Stains of the tumor were positive for the enzyme form at issue. After drug treatment, enzyme levels fell sharply. The authors say this is the first such case with both tissue proof and high blood levels, linking the enzyme to tumor growth.
