Autophagy is critical for pancreatic tumor growth and progression in tumors with p53 alterations.

abstract：:In this issue of Cancer Discovery, Poulin and colleagues apply structural, biochemical, and biological profiling of two mutants of KRAS, one found most frequently in all cancers (G12D) and one found nearly exclusively in colorectal cancer (A146T). They provide compelling evidence that specific mutations will impart di...
