Abstract excerpt
Cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCCs) arise from keratinocytes in the skin, but the molecular changes driving this transformation remain unclear. To better understand this process, we perform multi-omic profiling of keratinocytes, actinic keratoses, and cSCCs. Single-cell mutational analyses reveal that most keratinocytes have remarkably low mutation burdens; however, keratinocytes with TP53 or NOTCH1...
