MAPK determines the fate of lung stem cells
In: Bioscience
Extensive research on the regulation of homeostasis and lung tumorigenesis has been published in Nature Genetics by Group Signaling and Cell Cycle of the CNIO. The work led by Ángel Rodríguez Nebreda has been developed in collaboration with other researchers from the Molecular Oncology Programme at the CNIO. The article demonstrates that p38α MAPK protein is essential for proper regulation of proliferation and differentiation of stem cells and progenitor cells of the lung .
