abstractText | In a recent issue of Cell, Kumar and colleagues uncovered a synthetic lethal interaction between oncogenic KRAS and the transcription factor GATA2 in non-small cell lung carcinoma. Pharmacological inhibition of GATA2-mediated pathways with bortezomib and fasudil results in dramatic tumor inhibition. These observations unveil new armamentaria to fight this deadly disease. |
