Cell Dispersal Influences Tumor Heterogeneity and Introduces a Bias in NGS Data Interpretation

Abstract Short and long distance cell dispersal can have a marked effect on tumor structure, high cellular motility could lead to faster cell mixing and lower observable intratumor heterogeneity. Here we evaluated a model for cell mixing that investigates how short-range dispersal and cell turnover...
