A genetic cell context-dependent role for ZEB1 in lung cancer

ZEB1 is a driver of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition that usually promotes lung cancer in the context of KRAS mutation. Here, the authors uncover a growth suppressive role for ZEB1 in EGFRmutant lung adenocarcinoma, thus elucidating the context dependent function of this protein.
