Sensitivity in model output (steady-state level of M) to changes in parameters by ±5%. We see that the parameters with the greatest effect on output are ${\beta }_4$ (the rate of EMT) and ${\alpha }_1$ (the proliferative capacity of M).

Parameter (p)	Sensitivity Coefficient ($\frac{\partial M}{\partial p}$)
${\alpha }_1$	10,200
${\alpha }_2$	1,840
${\alpha }_3$	3,260
${\beta }_1$	449
${\beta }_2$	355
${\beta }_3$	358
${\beta }_4$	29,700
