Hyperglycemia and Lung Cancer—A Possible Relationship
2025
Overview
Glucose is the main source of energy in human cells. Elevated levels of glucose are one of the most common metabolic disorders, and it has been shown to have a significant, mostly negative, effect on multiple chronic and acute diseases. Lung cancer remains one of the biggest challenges for treatment in modern medicine, with a high prevalence, incidence and mortality. Hyperglycemia is not uncommon in patients with lung cancer; however, it is usually overlooked. Patients with unregulated glycemia and lung cancer have been shown to have worse outcomes, reduced therapeutic effect and more complications during treatment. Studies have identified multiple molecular pathways common in both hyperglycemia and lung cancer; however, no clear correlation has been identified. By understanding these signaling pathways, we can influence the outcome therapeutically and thereby improve the survival of patients with lung cancer.
