Abstract excerpt
Pathologic transformation represents a critical yet poorly defined window during which mutant epithelial stem cells actively construct the microenvironment that enables tumour initiation1,2. Here using integrated single-cell, spatial and functional analyses, we define the earliest multicellular events that licence this transition following oncogenic activation in the lung. KrasG12D-mutant alveolar type II cells...
