Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The subjects will be classified into three groups:
* Group I: will include ten non smoker volunteers (control group I).
* GroupII: will include ten smoker volunteers (control groupII).
* Group III: will include twenty NSCLC patients confirmed by pathological examination of bronchoalveolar examination (BAL), brush and/or biopsy.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* Complete history taking and complete general examination.
* Complete chest examination.
* Radiological assessment including chest x ray (posteroanterior and lateral view).
* Computed tomography (CT) chest for all patients in group III and when needed in group I and II.
* Laboratory investigations:
* Complete blood picture
* Fasting and post parandial blood sugar level
* liver function tests
* kidney function tests (urea and creatinine).
* Prothrombine time and activity.
* Zeil-Neelsen staining of sputum.
* Tumour markers including α Fetoprotein, Carcino Embryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, CA 125, CA15-3 and others.
* Venous blood samples will be collected from peripheral blood (5 ml) under complete aseptic technique. Serum samples will be obtained by centrifugation. Isolation of total RNA from serum pools will be performed. RNA profiles and quantification will be assessed using Microarray.
* Lung biopsy either transbronchial via bronchoscopy or peripherally via ultrasound , CT guided, thoracoscopy or open lung biopsy will be performed with isolation of total RNA from lung tissue biopsy. RNA profiles and quantification will be assessed using Microarray.
* Bronchoalveolar lavage will be performed with isolation of total RNA from it. RNA profiles will be assessed using Microarray.
Ethical considerations:
1. Informed consent will be taken from all subject's and include:
