Abstract

Cellular memory is the competence of cells to preserve information from past experiences and respond aptly. This memory is maintained and controlled by gene regulatory networks (GRNs). GRNs are crucial for understanding why some cells are resistant to treatment, particularly for cancer. In our study, we created a new mathematical model to understand how "noise" affects cellular memory in GRNs, focusing on a "double positive feedback loop". Our theoretical perspective article equipped with mathematical modeling exhibits how noise and feedback loops interact in GRNs. It also proposes a potential theoretical avenue for future therapy. By targeting the mechanisms that maintain drug resistance in cells, we aim to develop therapies that can restore the sensitivity of cancer cells to treatment.
