Abstract

Cell–cell communication in tumours In a genetically well-defined model system in Drosophila, Tian Xu and colleagues show that cell clones carrying distinct oncogenic mutations can cooperate to produce invasive tumours. This cooperation involves JNK and JAK/STAT signalling pathways. Similar cooperative mechanism might be at play in the communication between genetically heterogeneous human cancer cells or between tumour cells and their microenvironment.
