Figure 4. Quantification of attractor landscapes and discovery of transcription factors for cancer reversibility through perturbation simulation analysis. A methodology for implementing discontinuous attractor landscapes continuously from a computer model of gene networks and quantifying them as cancer scores was introduced (a), and attractor landscapes for the critical transition of colorectal cancer were secured (b-d). By tracking the change patterns of normal and cancer cell attractors through perturbation simulation analysis for each gene, the optimal combination of transcription factors for cancer reversion was discovered (e-h). This was confirmed in various parameter combinations as well (i).
