Negative frequency‐dependent interactions can underlie phenotypic heterogeneity in a clonal microbial population

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2016
Genetically identical cells in microbial populations often exhibit a remarkable degree of phenotypic heterogeneity even in homogenous environments.

Single-Cell Technologies to Study Phenotypic Heterogeneity and Bacterial Persisters

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Antibiotic persistence is a phenomenon in which rare cells of a clonal bacterial population can survive antibiotic doses that kill their kin, even though the entire population is genetically susceptible.

Quantitation and Comparison of Phenotypic Heterogeneity Among Single Cells of Monoclonal Microbial Populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Phenotypic heterogeneity within microbial populations arises even when the cells are exposed to putatively constant and homogeneous conditions. The outcome of this phenomenon can affect the whole function of the population, resulting in, for example, new

Phenotypic heterogeneity drives differential disease outcome in a mouse model of triple negative breast cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
The triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype is one of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer that has poor clinical outcome and is an unmet clinical challenge.

Population Dynamics of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Heterogeneity in Cancer Cells

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Phenotypic heterogeneity is a hallmark of aggressive cancer behaviour and a clinical challenge. Despite much characterisation of this heterogeneity at a multi-omics level in many cancers, we have a limited understanding of how this heterogeneity emerges ...

Phenotypic heterogeneity in modeling cancer evolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The unwelcome evolution of malignancy during cancer progression emerges through a selection process in a complex heterogeneous population structure. In the present work, we investigate evolutionary dynamics in a phenotypically heterogeneous population of

Topological signatures in regulatory network enable phenotypic heterogeneity in small cell lung cancer

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Phenotypic (non-genetic) heterogeneity has significant implications for the development and evolution of organs, organisms, and populations. Recent observations in multiple cancers have unraveled the role of phenotypic heterogeneity in driving metastasis

Phenotypic heterogeneity in the bacterial oxidative stress response is driven by cell-cell interactions

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Genetically identical bacterial cells commonly display different phenotypes. This phenotypic heterogeneity is well known for stress responses, where it is often explained as bet hedging against unpredictable environmental threats.

Mapping phenotypic heterogeneity in melanoma onto the epithelial-hybrid-mesenchymal axis

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a well-studied hallmark of epithelial-like cancers that is characterized by loss of epithelial markers and gain of mesenchymal markers.

Phenotypic heterogeneity of sitosterolemia

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
Sitosterolemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of lipoprotein metabolism characterized by xanthomas and increased plasma concentrations of plant sterols, such as sitosterol.
