Targeting enhancer switching overcomes non-genetic drug resistance in acute myeloid leukaemia

There is increasing evidence that epigenetic mechanisms contribute to therapeutic resistance in cancer. Here the authors study AML patient samples and a mouse model of non-genetic resistance and find that transcriptional plasticity drives stable epigenetic resistance, and identify regulators of enha...
