Oncogenic Ras-driven Dorsal/NF-κB signaling contributes to tumorigenesis in a Drosophila carcinoma model

This study shows that oncogenic RasV12 activates Dorsal/NF-κB signaling, promoting tumor growth and malignancy in Drosophila melanogaster tumors.

Host autophagy mediates organ wasting and nutrient mobilization for tumor growth

The paper shows that host autophagy drives organ wasting and nutrient mobilization to support tumor growth in Drosophila.
