Crack the state of silence: Tune the depth of cellular quiescence for cancer therapy

The regulation of cellular quiescence underlies numerous physiopathological phenomena. We recently found that quiescence depth can be tuned as to adjust a dimmer switch, by altering the expression of genes in the Retinoblastoma (Rb)-E2f pathway. Reducing quiescence depth may wake dormant cancer cell...

description The regulation of cellular quiescence underlies numerous physiopathological phenomena. We recently found that quiescence depth can be tuned as to adjust a dimmer switch, by altering the expression of genes in the Retinoblastoma (Rb)-E2f pathway. Reducing quiescence depth may wake dormant cancer cells and make them susceptible to treatment.
