Abstract excerpt
Approximately 40% of colorectal cancer (CRC) cases are characterised by KRAS mutations, rendering them insensitive to most therapies. While the reasons for this resistance remain incompletely understood, one key aspect is genetic complexity: in CRC, oncogenic KRAS is most commonly paired with mutations that alter WNT and P53 activities ("RAP"). Here, we demonstrate that elevated WNT activity upregulates canonical...
