Analysis of somatic mutations in senescent cells using single-cell whole-genome sequencing

TL;DR: Comparison of mutation burdens between early passage and deeply senescent human fibroblasts showed that single-nucleotide variations and small insertions and deletions increased in senescent cells by about two-fold, but have the same spectrum as early passage cells, while it has been known that particular mutational signatures are found in tumor cells.

Tumour Genetic Heterogeneity in Relation to Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Anti-Cancer Treatment

TL;DR: In this article , the authors discuss some of the events in cancer evolution and the functional significance of driver-mutations in carcinoma-related genes in general and elaborate on mechanisms mediating resistance to anti-cancer treatment.

Metastatic colonization by circulating tumour cells

TL;DR: An improved understanding of the mechanistic determinants of such colonization is needed to better prevent and treat metastatic cancer.

Clonal evolution in breast cancer revealed by single nucleus genome sequencing

TL;DR: The data show that aneuploid rearrangements occurred early in tumour evolution and remained highly stable as the tumour masses clonally expanded, which has important implications for the diagnosis, therapeutic treatment and evolution of chemoresistance in breast cancer.
