The intra-tumour heterogeneity landscape of human cancers
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Tumours accumulate many somatic mutations in their lifetime. Some of these mutations, drivers, convey a selective advantage and can induce clonal expansions. Incomplete clonal expansions give rise to intra-tumour heterogeneity. Somatic mutations can be measured through massively parallel sequencing, where mutations that are supporting incomplete expansions will appear as subclonal. These mutations can be used as a...
