Trp53 heterozygosity defines novel states impacting tumor plasticity and progression in Kras-initiated non-small cell lung cancer

KRAS and TP53 are frequently mutated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The most common event at the TP53 locus is mutation/loss of one allele and retention of a wild-type allele, which confers better survival outcomes than complete TP53 loss. To study the contribution of TP53 heterozygosity, we generated a murine lung tumor model with…
