Context-Dependent Effects of Amplified MAPK Signaling during Lung Adenocarcinoma Initiation and Progression
Expression of oncogenic KrasG12D initiates lung adenomas in a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal-dependent manner from only a subset of cell types in the adult mouse lung.Amplification of MAPK signaling is associated with progression to malignant adenocarcinomas, but hanes 42tb whether this is a cause or a consequence of disease progres
