Abstract

BACKGROUND: Several pro-oncogenic signals, including transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signalling from tumour microenvironment, generate intratumoural phenotypic heterogeneity and result in tumour progression and treatment failure. However, the precise diagnosis for tumour areas containing subclones with cytokine-induced malignant properties remains clinically challenging.
