Epithelial tumor cells utilize mast cell-derived histamine to regulate perineural invasion

Ankit Srivastava, Tomas Bencomo, Chaw‐Ning Lee…·Carolyn S. Lee

This study identifies mast cell-derived histamine as a regulator of perineural invasion in epithelial cancers, showing that H1-antihistamines improve survival and immunotherapy response.

Gene expression landscape of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma progression

Tomas Bencomo, Carolyn S. Lee

This study harmonizes RNA-Seq data from multiple SCC studies to define a consensus gene expression landscape, identifies UV-responsive genes, and shows gene fusions are not common drivers of SCC.
