Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) consists of heterogeneous tumors that originate from surface epithelial cells, with a dynamic keratinocyte (KC)-specific network of epigenetic modifications and transcription factors (TFs) being involved in squamous cell fate determination and oncogenesis. In recently published work, researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital and affiliated organizations aimed to identify kinases that control these processes and could therefore have therapeutic applications.
