Therapeutic hints from analyzing the attractor landscape of the p53 regulatory circuit
Abstract
Genes are interconnected in the cell to form a genetic network that regulates cell fate. Targeting multiple genes is expected to be more effective in developing therapeutics than targeting single genes. A recent study demonstrated the possibility of systematically searching for such combinatorial treatments by characterizing the attractor landscape of the p53 regulatory circuit.
