We found a small but highly significant effect: each additional subclone increased the average absolute difference in VAF of the shared variants between MC3 and PCAWG by 0.003, with a p -value of 1.3 × 10 −11 (linear regression); this effect reversed after controlling for tumor purity, indicating that the observed trend does not provide evidence of this interesting concept in re-sequencing (see “Methods” section for details).

The overlap between the respective differentially expressed genes was highly significant in almost all comparisons (Fig. 5c , Supplementary Fig. 3d , and Supplementary Table 6 ) and the observed expression fold changes were consistent with the notion that IL-6/HIL6 stimulation recruits progenitor populations from both more differentiated and more stem-like populations, with the dedifferentiation branch (MatLum → LumProg) being more consistent than differentiation (MaSC → LumProg).
Through counting the number of both significantly hypo- and hypermethylated CpG dinucleotides mapping to each of these genomic elements, a clear trend emerged: promoters, gene bodies, and regions not mapping to promoters, genes or enhancers (red bars) were highly hypomethylated in insulinomas as compared to beta cells (~90% of CpGs) (red bars in Fig. 1c , Supplementary Data 7 , 8 ).
