    Single-cell metabolic fingerprints discover a cluster of circulating tumor cells with distinct metastatic potential

    Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are recognized as direct seeds of metastasis. However, CTC count may not be the “best” indicator of metastatic risk because their heterogeneity is generally neglected. In this st...
