NFKB1 and neoplasm: We previously showed that oncogenic HRASV12 conferred tumour initiation capacity in tumour suppressor p53-deficient (p53−/−) primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) through transcription factor NF-κB-mediated enhancement of glucose uptake; however, the underlying mechanisms of RAS oncogene-induced CSC reprogramming have not been elucidated.
