Single-cell transcriptome profiling of the stepwise progression of head and neck cancer
Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) undergo a stepwise progression from normal tissues. In order to better understand the molecular mechanisms behind such progression, here the authors profile HNSCC tumors at different stages using single-cell RNA-seq, and observe the role of interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
