These scenarios trigger distribution shifts arising from heterogeneous sequencing platforms, distinct tissue microenvironments, and metastatic evolution\u2014problems rarely addressed by existing methods.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We introduce CSGDA, a cell state-guided graph domain adaptation framework designed to predict drug responses across these biological heterogeneities. CSGDA incorporates biological priors to map gene expression into functional cell states, guiding a structure learning module to construct robust cell topology. To mitigate distribution shifts, the model employs graph domain adaptation combined with a novel overlap penalty mechanism. Extensive benchmarks on five scRNA-seq datasets demonstrate that CSGDA outperforms the state-of-the-art method SSDA4Drug by approximately 6 percentage points in both ACC and AUPR. Beyond prediction accuracy, we employed integrated gradients to effectively pinpoint key genes involved in drug resistance within a challenging cross-metastasis cisplatin dataset. These findings underscore CSGDA\u2019s superior performance in single-cell drug response prediction and its potential in resolving single-cell heterogeneity, paving the way for precision medicine.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Availability and Implementation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Source code is available at https:\/\/github.com\/yanfen-git\/CSGDA-code and archived at https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5281\/zenodo.21759274.
