Abstract excerpt
Kras (Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog), one of the most frequently mutated oncogenes in the human genome, is considered 'untargetable'. Although specific KRASG12C inhibitors have been developed, their overall impact is limited, highlighting the need for further research on targeting KRAS-mutant cancers. Metabolic abnormalities are key hallmarks of cancer, with KRAS-driven tumors exhibiting...
