Abstract excerpt
Disruptions to regulatory signals governing stem cell fate open the pathway to tumorigenesis. To determine how these programs become destabilized, we fate-map thousands of murine wild-type and KrasG12D-mutant alveolar type II (AT2) stem cells in vivo and find evidence for two independent AT2 subpopulations marked by distinct tumorigenic capacities. By combining clonal analyses with single-cell transcriptomics, we...
