Abstract excerpt
Epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity is a cell-fate switching program that enables cells to adopt a spectrum of phenotypes ranging from epithelial (E) to mesenchymal (M), including intermediate hybrid E/M states. Hybrid E/M phenotypes are conducive to cancer metastasis, as they are associated with metastatic initiation, cancer stemness, drug resistance, and collective migration. Boolean models of the gene regulatory...
