Comprehensive Characterization of Stem Cell Landscape Identifies Novel Stemness-Relevant Genes for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Therapy

Key Points

Novel stemness-related markers may serve as potential therapeutic targets for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Distinct NPC subtypes exhibit unique clinical outcomes and varying tumor microenvironment features.
Systematic characterization highlights the importance of stemness in treatment strategies for NPC.
These findings may enable better-targeted therapies for metastatic or recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Abstract

This study systematically characterized two NPC subtypes with distinct stemness features, clinical outcomes, and TIME features. Novel stemness-related markers will provide valuable targets against metastatic or recurrent NPC.
