Endogenous Sterol Metabolites Regulate Growth of EGFR/KRAS-Dependent Tumors via LXR

Meiosis-activating sterols (MAS) are substrates of SC4MOL and NSDHL in the cholesterol pathway and are important for normal organismal development. Oncogenic transformation by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or RAS increases the demand for cholesterol, suggesting a possibility for metabolic...
