C-Raf Is Required for the Initiation of Lung Cancer by K-RasG12D
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Abstract The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK (extracellular signal–regulated kinase) pathway is primarily responsible for mitogenesis in metazoans, and mutational activation of this pathway is common in cancer. A variety of selective chemical inhibitors directed against the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway are now available for clinical investigation and thus the determination of the importance of each of the kinases in oncogenesis is paramount. We investigated the role of two Raf kinases, B-Raf and C-Raf, in Ras oncogenesis, and found that although B-Raf and C-Raf have overlapping functions in primary mesenchymal cells, C-Raf but not B-Raf is required for the proliferative effects of K-RasG12D in primary epithelial cells. Furthermore, in a lung cancer mouse model, C-Raf is essential for tumor initiation by oncogenic K-RasG12D, whereas B-Raf is dispensable for this process. Our findings reveal that K-RasG12D elicits its oncogenic effects primarily through C-Raf and suggest that selective C-Raf inhibition could be explored as a therapeutic strategy for K-Ras–dependent cancers. Significance: Ras is one of the most prevalent oncogenes in human cancer; however, it is considered “undruggable.” Therefore, increasing our understanding of the importance of Ras effectors, including the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway, will create novel avenues for therapeutic intervention.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
