Abstract excerpt
Constitutively active KRAS mutations are highly prevalent in lung cancers, but the direct role of its downstream phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway in tumor progression remains unclear. A previous study established the requirement for PIK3CA, the alpha catalytic isoform, in lung tumor development in mouse models with an intact Trp53 tumor suppressor. In this study, we further investigated the...
