Despite identical genetic constitution, a cancer cell population can exhibit phenotypic variations termed as nongenetic/ non-mutational heterogeneity. Such heterogeneity - a ubiquitous nature of biological systems - has been implicated in metastasis, therapy resistance and tumour relapse. Here, we review the evidence for existence, sources and implications of non-genetic heterogeneity in multiple cancer types....
