A Spatio-Temporal Model of Macrophage-Mediated Drug Resistance in Glioma Immunotherapy.

abstract：:Targeting of epigenetic regulators as the chromatin remodeler SWI/SNF is proving to be a promising therapeutic strategy for individualized treatment of cancer patients. Here, we tested whether targeting one of the two mutually exclusive subdomains of the SWI/SNF complex BRM/SMARCA2 can sensitize specifically non-small...
