Towards controlling cell-state switching of neural crest differentiation states in melanoma evolution

Melanoma, a deadly skin cancer, exhibits remarkable adaptability, enabling metastasis, therapy resistance, and immune evasion. Central to this adaptability is the ability of melanoma cells to transition between distinct functional states, a process rooted in mechanisms of cell fate choice. Read more
