Defined lipid analogues induce transient channels to facilitate drug-membrane traversal and circumvent cancer therapy resistance

Design and efficacy of bioactive drugs is restricted by their (in)ability to traverse cellular membranes. Therapy resistance, a major cause of ineffective cancer treatment, is frequently due to suboptimal intracellular accumulation of the drug. We report a molecular mechanism that promotes trans-mem...
