Abstract excerpt
Cell competition is an evolutionarily ancient mechanism that functions to remove unfit or dangerous clonal cells in a multicellular community. A classical model is the removal of polarity-deficient clones, such as the precancerous scribble (scrib) mutant clones, in Drosophila imaginal discs. The activation of Ras, Yki, or Notch signaling robustly reverses the scrib mutant clonal fate from elimination to tumorous...
