Abstract

Abstract KRAS-mutant colorectal cancers are resistant to therapeutics, presenting a significant problem for ∼40% of cases. Rapalogs, which inhibit mTORC1 and thus protein synthesis, are significantly less potent in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer. Using Kras-mutant mouse models and mouse- and patient-derived organoids, we demonstrate that KRAS with G12D mutation fundamentally rewires translation to increase both bulk and mRNA-specific translation initiation. This occurs via the MNK/eIF4E pathway culminating in sustained expression of c-MYC. By genetic and small-molecule targeting of this pathway, we acutely sensitize KRASG12D models to rapamycin via suppression of c-MYC. We show that 45% of colorectal cancers have high signaling through mTORC1 and the MNKs, with this signature correlating with a 3.5-year shorter cancer-specific survival in a subset of patients. This work provides a c-MYC–dependent cotargeting strategy with remarkable potency in multiple Kras-mutant mouse models and metastatic human organoids and identifies a patient population that may benefit from its clinical application. Significance: KRAS mutation and elevated c-MYC are widespread in many tumors but remain predominantly untargetable. We find that mutant KRAS modulates translation, culminating in increased expression of c-MYC. We describe an effective strategy targeting mTORC1 and MNK in KRAS-mutant mouse and human models, pathways that are also commonly co-upregulated in colorectal cancer.

  • Translational control plays a critical role in all steps of cancer progression.

    “Translational control plays a critical role in all steps of cancer progression, and most oncogenic signaling pathways converge to enhance the translational capacity of tumor cells (30–32).”

    From Apolipoprotein E2 Stimulates Protein Synthesis and Promotes Melanoma Progression and Metastasis (2023) · cites this paper as [31]

    The Introduction says that deregulated mRNA translation sustains cancer-cell proliferation and oncogene expression, and that eIF4E phosphorylation is downstream of many oncogenic pathways. It does not establish a critical role for translational control in all steps of cancer progression, or that most oncogenic pathways converge to enhance tumor cells’ translational capacity.

    The Introduction says that many oncogenic pathways signal to eIF4E phosphorylation and that KRAS activation enhances protein synthesis. It supports a link between oncogenic signaling and translation, but does not establish that most oncogenic pathways converge to enhance tumor cells’ translational capacity. (LLM, conf=0.85)

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.
