BUFFALO, NY – June 9, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 20, 2025, titled “Cigarette smoke and decreased DNA repair by Xeroderma Pigmentosum Group C use a double hit mechanism for epithelial cell lung carcinogenesis.” In this study, led by first author Nawar Al Nasralla and corresponding author Catherine R. Sears, from the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, Sleep and Occupational Medicine, Indianapolis and the Richard L. Roudebush Veterans Affairs Medical Center, researchers investigated how cigarette smoke and reduced DNA repair capacity contribute together to the development of lung cancer. They found that when a critical DNA repair protein called XPC is decreased and lung cells are exposed to cigarette smoke, the combination causes extensive damage and significantly increases cancer risk. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) develops through both genetic and environmental factors. This study focused on how cigarette smoke affects the body's natural ability to repair DNA. The researchers studied the role of XPC, a protein essential for recognizing and repairing harmful DNA changes caused by tobacco smoke. They found that low levels of XPC — commonly seen in lung cancer patients — made lung cells less capable of repairing DNA. This made the cells unstable and more likely to become cancerous. These changes were most pronounced in normal lung cells, suggesting that the earliest stages of disease occur before cancer is even detected. The findings support a “double hit” model, where both cigarette smoke and reduced DNA repair work together to drive cancer development. In laboratory experiments, normal lung cells with low XPC levels showed more damage and cell death after cigarette smoke exposure. By contrast, lung cancer cells were more resistant to smoke damage, even when XPC was low, indicating that critical changes had likely occurred earlier in the disease process. “Our study suggests that cigarette smoke exposure leads to decreased XPC mRNA expression, exacerbates total and oxidative DNA damage, hinders NER, and may contribute to lung cancer development.” The study also showed that DNA repair ability declined significantly in healthy cells after smoke exposure, but this effect was not seen in cancer cells. In addition, the researchers confirmed that XPC gene activity was lower in actual lung tumor tissue compared to nearby healthy lung tissue. This pattern was consistent across both adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, the two main types of NSCLC. These results add to our understanding of how lung cancer begins at the molecular level. By showing how cigarette smoke and reduced DNA repair combine to create genetic instability, the research points toward new strategies for prevention. A better understanding of XPC's role could help identify high-risk individuals and inform future efforts to stop lung cancer before it begins.

This week's episode is all about work capacity. What is it? How do you train for it? What programming principles apply? This is another one of our recurring "how to" episodes, and it essentially fills in the gap left after our strength and endurance episodes. Somewhere between those two is the fuzzy concept of work capacity, which brings up related concepts like "mixed modal training" and even the dreaded CrossFit. We start with a few definitions (some better than others) and even a quick science lesson. After that the bulk of this episode focuses on Drew's "Theoretical Guide to Work Capacity" which lays out his multi-pace theory. We highly recommend you pull up the blog post if you can, some of the framework is easier to digest when you can look at a chart. To some extent, this also builds on the previous blog post "Three Strategies for Functional Conditioning." Subscribers to our Long and Strong program may enjoy this look into the method behind the madness of the work capacity sessions they've been doing a lot of. If this episode gets you curious, we'd love to have you join us! One of our definitions of work capacity came from the very smart Greg Nuckols of Stronger by Science. Another came from T-Nation, which can be a good resource as long as you're on guard for their shameless and aggressive supplement sales. Unsurprisingly we also touch on CrossFit's definition as well And Drew also specifically cites OPEX's framework, specifically maximal aerobic power. Finally, and perhaps oddly, one of our definitions came from the Indian Journal of Environmental & Occupational Medicine. It turns out there is a large body of research focused on work capacity in the context of manual labor. Based on their less than impressive grasp on physiology, this might be an opportunity for some exercise physiology folks to help them out.

GUEST BIO: Nicole is a Physician Assistant residing in Virginia. She obtained a BS at James Madison University in 2000 and then went on to complete the Master of Physician Assistant program at Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2004. She practiced in an Urgent Care and Occupational Medicine setting until severe illness from benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome left her unable to work.In 2005, she was prescribed Xanax for “work-related stress.” Over the course of five years, she developed many classic symptoms of benzodiazepine tolerance withdrawal, which multiple psychiatrists misdiagnosed as mental illness. This resulted in prescribed polypharmacy to “treat” the troubling symptoms of tolerance, including two benzodiazepines prescribed simultaneously, a Z-drug, an antidepressant, and an antipsychotic. In late 2010, after discovering a magazine article authored by a journalist experiencing similar symptoms from his prescribed benzodiazepine, Nicole was prompted to research further and made the connection between her own troubling symptoms and the medication. This was followed by her immediate decision to withdraw. Unfortunately, lacking the proper guidance or information at the time regarding the absolute need for a slow taper, she was negligently cold-turkeyed in a detox center. This ultimately resulted in a severe and protracted withdrawal syndrome that persists to date.When symptoms allow, Nicole writes about benzodiazepines and their potential to cause severe and/or protracted withdrawal syndromes and volunteers her time helping with ongoing benzodiazepine awareness initiatives including Benzodiazepine Information Coalition and the Benzodiazepine Action Work Group of the Colorado Consortium. Nicole also co-founded The Withdrawal Project and she does marketing, distribution and outreach for Medicating Normal-The Film. She is an associate at the International Institute for Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal. She hopes to continue to use her lived experience to advocate for more education and awareness around benzodiazepine risks and harms as well as for changes in prescribing and withdrawal practices. Other interests include the primal lifestyle.SHOW NOTES:
