Abstract

This work establishes a fluorescent live-cell reporter system to monitor local communication between malignant and non-malignant breast cancer cells. This system reveals that the EGFR-RAS-ERK signaling network amplifies small ligand fluctuations to generate dynamically heterogeneous gene expression states, which may provide an adaptive advantage for tumor cells.
