Research progress on meningeal metastasis of lung cancer
Peiqiang Liang
Abstract:Meningeal metastases (LM) are a common complication of malignant tumors
that progress rapidly and have a poor prognosis. Meningeal metastasis
may be a combination of intracellular and extracellular factors. The
linkage between the C3 signaling pathway and the EGFR ligand regulatory
