Single-cell multiomics reveals heterogeneous cell states linked to metastatic potential in liver cancer cell lines.

The authors also identified a rare hypoxic subtype that has a higher capacity for glycolysis and exhibits dormant, invasive, and malignant characteristics. The data provide a valuable data resource, facilitate a deeper understanding of metastatic mechanisms, and may help diagnosis of metastatic potential in individual patients, thus supporting personalized medicine.

Countstar (model not specified) provided the instrument readout for cell number and viability in the study's cell samples before single-cell analysis for the study's single-cell analysis.
