Irreversible evolution, obstacles in fitness landscapes and persistent drug resistance [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We use fitness graphs, or directed cube graphs, for analyzing evolutionary reversibility. The main application is antimicrobial drug resistance. Reversible drug resistance has been observed both clinically and experimentally. If drug resistance depends on a single point mutation, then a possible scenario is that the mutation reverts back to the wild ...

Optical detection of structural properties of tumor tissues generated by xenografting of drug-sensitive and drug-resistant cancer cells using partial wave spectroscopy (PWS) [PDF]
Optics Express 10 (12), 6422-6431 (2019), 2019 The quantitative measurement of structural alterations at the nanoscale level is important for understanding the physical state of biological samples. Studies have shown that the progression of cancer is associated with the rearrangements of building blocks of cells/tissues such as DNA, RNA, lipids, etc.
