Stochastic demethylation and redundant epigenetic suppressive mechanisms generate highly heterogeneous responses to pharmacological DNA methyltransferase inhibition by Mie K. Jakobsen, Sofie Traynor, Aaraby Y. Nielsen, Christina Dahl, Mette Staehr, Simon T. Jakobsen, Maria S. Madsen, Rasmus Siersbaek, Mikkel G. Terp, Josefine B. Jensen, Christina B.
