Prospect for application of mathematical models in combination cancer treatments [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The long-term efficacy of targeted therapeutics for cancer treatment can be significantly limited by the type of therapy and development of drug resistance, inter alia. Experimental studies indicate that the factors enhancing acquisition of drug resistance in cancer cells include cell heterogeneity, drug target alteration, drug inactivation, DNA damage

Analysis of Multiple Myeloma Drug Efficacy
medRxivMultiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable plasma cell neoplasm. MM-specific alterations in methylation status cause gradual epigenetic changes and lead to pre-MM disease states, such as Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance (MGUS) and Smoldering

DACH1 suppresses breast cancer as a negative regulator of CD44. [PDF]
, 2017 Dachshund homolog 1 (DACH1), a key cell fate determination factor, contributes to tumorigenesis, invasion, metastasis of human breast neoplasm. However, the exact molecular mechanisms for the anti-tumor roles of DACH1 in breast carcinoma are still lack ...

Emergence of Anti-Cancer Drug Resistance: Exploring the Importance of the Microenvironmental Niche via a Spatial Model [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Practically, all chemotherapeutic agents lead to drug resistance. Clinically, it is a challenge to determine whether resistance arises prior to, or as a result of, cancer therapy. Further, a number of different intracellular and microenvironmental factors have been correlated with the emergence of drug resistance.

Convection shapes the trade-off between antibiotic efficacy and the selection for resistance in spatial gradients [PDF]
, 2017 Since penicillin was discovered about 90 years ago, we have become used to using drugs to eradicate unwanted pathogenic cells. However, using drugs to kill bacteria, viruses or cancer cells has the serious side effect of selecting for mutant types that survive the drug attack.
