Key Finding
The findings suggest NOTCH2 is a viable biomarker for paclitaxel resistance and that combining NOTCH2 inhibitor with taxane is an effective therapeutic strategy to selectively disrupt tumor-macrophage interaction and overcome macrophage-mediated taxane resistance in NOTCH2-positive tumors.
Countstar Connection
Researchers used Countstar (model not specified) to assess cell numbers in the study's cell samples before downstream analysis in the 2026 Molecular cancer study.
