A 3D Bioprinted Spheroid Model of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Uncovers Constitutive IGF‑1R/PI3K/AKT Signaling as a Mediator of Intrinsic Cetuximab Resistance and a Therapeutic Vulnerability
2026-06-29
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is an epithelial malignancy endemic to Southern China and Southeast Asia and is closely associated with Epstein–Barr virus infection. In the recurrent/metastatic stage, NPC exhibits marked intrinsic resistance to cetuximab, yet the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely elucidated. Conventional two-dimensional (2D) culture fails to faithfully recapitula...
