Distinct innate immune gene expression profiles in non-melanoma skin cancer of immunocompetent and immunosuppressed patients.
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) are the most frequent skin cancers in humans. An intact immune system is critical for protection against SCC since organ transplant recipients (OTR) have a 60- to 100-fold higher risk for developing these tumors. The role of the innate imm...
