Heterogeneity of biological structure and function is an impediment to the analysis and treatment of human solid tumours. Its importance is frequently underestimated in clinico-pathological research. This article reviews the many facets of heterogeneity in tumour systems, and its importance to the interpretation of tumour biology.
生物结构和功能的异质性是人类实体瘤分析和治疗的一个障碍。在临床病理研究中,其重要性常常被低估。本文综述了肿瘤系统异质性的诸多方面及其对肿瘤生物学解读的重要性。
