ADAM17 selectively activates the IL‐6 trans‐signaling/ERK MAPK axis in KRAS‐addicted lung cancer

Abstract Oncogenic KRAS mutations are major drivers of lung adenocarcinoma (LAC), yet the direct therapeutic targeting of KRAS has been problematic. Here, we reveal an obligate requirement by oncogenic KRAS for the ADAM17 protease in LAC. In genetically engineered and xenograft (human cell line and...
