Figure 18. An “organelle biogenesis” approach to cancer therapy. A schematic diagram illustrating that breast cancer cells in co-culture increase their “mito-stemness” and “ribo-stemness” features is shown. Note the increases in mitochondrial biogenesis and the protein synthesis machinery, as enumerated in Supplementary Tables 1 to 4 and independently confirmed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). These findings predict increased susceptibility to treatment with FDA-approved antibiotics, such as Doxycycline and Azithromycin.
