Dynamic modelling of EWS::FLI1 fluctuations reveals molecular determinants of phenotypic tumor plasticity and prognosis in Ewing sarcoma

Veveeyan Suresh, Christoph Hafemeister, Andri Konstantinou…·Valerie Fock

This study models EWS::FLI1 fluctuations in Ewing sarcoma, showing that partial depletion promotes metastasis and identifies gene clusters and transcription factors linked to poor prognosis.
