Study links pregnancy specific genes to poorer lung cancer outcomes in women

Lung cancer can co-opt genes that normally help a fetus develop and evade the mother's immune system. And while these pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSGs) can get activated in the cancers of both men and women, female patients had poorer outcomes, a Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) research team has found.
