Abstract
Multiregion sequencing is needed to better capture the heterogeneity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA). Here, the authors analyse HCC and iCCA tumours with multiregion single-cell RNA-seq, revealing cellular dynamics and communication networks with immune cells.
