Many tumors in one: a daunting therapeutic prospect
Abstract
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Snuderl and coworkers demonstrate intratumoral genetic heterogeneity in glioblastoma based on in situ amplification of distinct genomic loci within individual cells in a mutually exclusive pattern. These findings may herald trouble for current targeted therapies but provide insights for future treatment strategies.
