Researchers find biomarker of chemotherapy resistance in relapsed lung cancer
Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that some cancer cells express the YAP1 protein only after treatment with chemotherapy, allowing them to survive by becoming more invasive and leading to treatment resistance with eventual relapse in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
