Optimal control nodes in disease-perturbed networks as targets for combination therapy

Synergistic interactions may arise between regulators in complex molecular networks. Here, the authors develop OptiCon, a computational method for de novo identification of synergistic key regulators and investigate their potential roles as candidate targets for combination therapy.
