Abstract:The important role of PIWI‐interacting RNAs (piRNAs) in tumors has garnered increasing attention. However, research on their role in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains limited. Elevated levels of piRNA‐137463 have been linked to poor prognosis in LUAD patients. Inhibition of piRNA‐137463 curbed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells, enhanced T cell cytotoxicity through increased IFN‐γ secretion, disrupted cholesterol metabolism, and reduced intracellular cholesterol, lipid raft content, and … Show more
