Identification of Ras-degrading small molecules that inhibit the transformation of colorectal cancer cells independent of β-catenin signaling

Colorectal cancer: Finding new small molecule drug candidates Mutations in KRAS, a gene regulating cell proliferation, occur in 40–50% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. These cancers are usually insensitive to antibody drugs targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on cancer cells. K...
