Single cell analysis in head and neck cancer reveals potential immune evasion mechanisms during early metastasis

The molecular mechanisms underlying lymph-node metastasis in head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma remain to be investigated. Here, the authors perform single-cell RNA sequencing of cancer cells and CD8 + T cells and suggest potential mechanisms of immune evasion during early metastasis.
