Computational modeling demonstrates that glioblastoma cells can survive spatial environmental challenges through exploratory adaptation

Glioblastoma cells are known to be able to adapt easily to different environments. The authors study the dynamic adaptation of glioblastoma cells to the heterogenous brain tumor microenvironment, showing that tumor cells demonstrate varying plasticity of their transcriptomic profiles and an ability...

Sumario:Glioblastoma cells are known to be able to adapt easily to different environments. The authors study the dynamic adaptation of glioblastoma cells to the heterogenous brain tumor microenvironment, showing that tumor cells demonstrate varying plasticity of their transcriptomic profiles and an ability to survive new stimuli, in part, by propagating stochastic perturbations over their gene-regulatory network.
