Predicting patient outcomes with gene-expression biomarkers from colorectal cancer organoids and cell lines by Alexandra Razumovskaya, Mariia Silkina, Mariia Silkina, Mariia Silkina, Andrey Poloznikov, Timur Kulagin, Maria Raigorodskaya, Nina Gorban, Anna Kudryavtseva, Maria Fedorova, Boris Alekseev, Alexander Tonevitsky, Alexander Tonevitsky, Alexander Tonevitsky, Sergey Nikulin, Sergey Nikulin, Sergey Nikulin

“…While some genes were previously implicated in cancer prognosis and drug response, several were linked to drug resistance for the first time. The resulting gene expression signatures successfully stratified Stage II/III and Stage IV CRC patients, with potential clinical utility for improving treatment outcomes after further validation.DiscussionThis study highlights the advantages of integrating diverse experimental models, such as organoids and cell lines, to identify novel prognostic biomarkers and enhance the understanding of chemotherapy resistance in CRC.…”
