Deskripsi

Triple-negative breast cancer is highly heterogeneous and aggressive. Here, the authors utilise single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate this heterogeneity, and discover a subpopulation of cells associated with metastasis and treatment resistance signatures, and linked to long term survival outcomes.
