Abstract excerpt
Understanding the emerging models of adaptive resistance is key to overcoming cancer chemotherapy failure. Using human breast cancer explants, in vitro cell lines, mouse in vivo studies and mathematical modelling, here we show that exposure to a taxane induces phenotypic cell state transition towards a favoured transient CD44(Hi)CD24(Hi) chemotherapy-tolerant state. This state is associated with a clustering of...
