Tumour-specific Causal Inference Discovers Distinct Disease Mechanisms Underlying Cancer Subtypes
Abstract Cancer is a disease mainly caused by somatic genome alterations (SGAs) that perturb cellular signalling systems. Furthermore, the combination of pathway aberrations in a tumour defines its disease mechanism, and distinct disease mechanisms underlie the inter-tumour heterogeneity in terms of...
