Changes in the Transcriptome and Synthetic Lethal Dependencies Following <i>KRAS</i> Mutant Expression Reveal Profound Tissue-Specificity
2026-05-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Oncogenic KRAS mutations exhibit a striking tissue-restricted tropism, occurring with high frequency in pancreatic, colorectal, and lung adenocarcinomas while remaining rare in other lineages. The molecular basis for why these specific tissues are uniquely permissive to KRAS transformation, and how this context shapes therapeutic vulnerabilities, remains poorly defined. Here, we utilized CRISPR-...
