KMT2D Loss Promotes Head and Neck Squamous Carcinoma Through Enhancer Reprogramming and Modulation of Immune Microenvironment
2021-09-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, with 5-year survival of ∼50%. Genomic profiling studies have identified important somatic mutations in this disease which presents an opportunity for precision medicine. We demonstrate that KMT2D, a histone methyltransferase harbors somatic mutations in ∼17% of HNSCC and is associated with 2-year recurrence...
