Translocation of intracellular CD24 constitutes a triggering event for drug resistance in breast cancer

Abstract The capacity of tumor cells to shift dynamically between different states could be responsible for chemoresistance and has been commonly linked to the acquisition of stem cell properties. Here, we have evaluated the phenotype switching associated with drug resistance in breast cancer cell l...
