Discovered as a proto-oncogene 40 years ago, mutations in KRAS exist in ∼30% of all human cancers. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell,Dost et al. (2020) combine the power of analyzing organoid cultures, patient samples, and mouse models with scRNA-seq to elucidate early events occurring with oncogenic KRAS activation.
四十年前,KRAS 作为原癌基因被发现,其突变存在于所有人类癌症的约 30%中。在本期的《Cell Stem Cell》杂志上,Dost 等人(2020)结合了分析类器官培养物、患者样本和小鼠模型以及 scRNA-seq 的能力,阐明了致癌性 KRAS 激活时发生的早期事件。
