Highly variable cancer subpopulations that exhibit enhanced transcriptome variability and metastatic fitness
Phenotypic and genetic intra-tumor heterogeneity have an important role in cancer progression and therapeutic resistance. Here, the authors show that phenotypically variable tumor subpopulations exhibit higher metastatic potential and display enhanced intra-clonal transcriptomic variability, likely...
