Integrating genetic and nongenetic drivers of somatic evolution during carcinogenesis: The biplane model
Abstract The multistep transition from a normal to a malignant cellular phenotype is often termed “somatic evolution” caused by accumulating random mutations. Here, we propose an alternative model in which the initial genetic state of a cancer cell is the result of mutations that occurred throughout...
