摘要
Resistance to chemotherapy is a prominent clinical problem in high grade serous ovarian cancer(HGSOC).1 An inadequate understanding of adaptive signaling coupled with limited treatment options for a chemoresistant tumor are likely causes for poor outcomes.We previously reported that BMI1,a stem-cell factor is instrumental in regulating chemoresistance.2,3 However,to advance anti-BMI1 therapy from the bench to the bedside,efficacy needs to be tested in patient-derived chemoresistant HGSOC models,which is lacking.
