Whole genome doubling confers unique genetic vulnerabilities on tumor cells

2020-06-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Whole genome doubling (WGD) occurs early in tumorigenesis and generates genetically unstable tetraploid cells that fuel tumor development. Cells that undergo WGD (WGD + ) must adapt to accommodate their abnormal tetraploid state; however, the nature of these adaptations, and whether they confer vulnerabilities that can subsequently be exploited therapeutically, is unclear. Using sequencing data...
