Oncogenic Fusion Gene <i>CD74-NRG1</i> Confers Cancer Stem Cell–like Properties in Lung Cancer through a IGF2 Autocrine/Paracrine Circuit
3 Feb 2016
Abstract excerpt
The CD74-Neuregulin1 (NRG1) fusion gene was recently identified as novel driver of invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma, a malignant form of lung cancer. However, the function of the CD74-NRG1 fusion gene in adenocarcinoma pathogenesis and the mechanisms by which it may impart protumorigenic characteristics to cancer stem cells (CSC) is still unclear. In this study, we found that the expression of the CD74-NRG1...
