Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Primary resistance to anti-EGFR therapies affects 40% of metastatic colorectal cancer patients harbouring wild-type RAS/RAF. YAP1 activation is associated with this resistance, prompting an investigation into AURKA's role in mediating YAP1 phosphorylation at Ser397, as observed in breast cancer. METHODS: We used transcriptomic analysis along with in vitro and in vivo models of RAS/RAF wild-type CRC to...
