A combination approach of pseudotime analysis and mathematical modeling for understanding drug-resistant mechanisms

Abstract Cancer cells acquire drug resistance through the following stages: nonresistant, pre-resistant, and resistant. Although the molecular mechanism of drug resistance is well investigated, the process of drug resistance acquisition remains largely unknown. Here we elucidate the molecular mechan...
