Deskripsi

Hypoxia is known to promote tumor progression. Here, the authors evaluate hypoxic cells using a fate mapping approach and identify a distinct gene expression profile of cells exposed to intratumoral hypoxia and show that post-hypoxic tumor cells have an ROS-resistant phenotype enabling metastasis in vivo.
