Efficiency of communication between tumour cells in collagen gel cultures

Mixtures of drug-resistant and drug-sensitive tumour cells growing in 3-dimensional boluses in collagen gel matrix are shown to be effectively coupled so that the response of the mixture is significantly influenced by a subpopulation making up only 1% of the total cells.
