Oncofetal reprogramming drives phenotypic plasticity in WNT-dependent colorectal cancer
1 Feb 2025
Abstract excerpt
Targeting cancer stem cells (CSCs) is crucial for effective cancer treatment, yet resistance mechanisms to LGR5+ CSC depletion in WNT-driven colorectal cancer (CRC) remain elusive. In the present study, we revealed that mutant intestinal stem cells (SCs) depart from their canonical identity, traversing a dynamic phenotypic spectrum. This enhanced plasticity is initiated by oncofetal (OnF) reprogramming, driven by...
