Research Progress of Single-cell RNA Sequencing in Esophageal Cancer
Journal: Journal of Clinical Medicine Research DOI: 10.32629/jcmr.v4i4.1391
Abstract
Esophageal cancer (EC) is a highly invasive malignant tumor with early onset, rapid progression, and high risk of recurrence and metastasis. Despite continuous advances in treatment methods, the five-year survival rate has not significantly improved. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), a high-throughput sequencing technology that has received much attention in recent years, can identify gene expression information at the single-cell level, addressing the issue of cell heterogeneity in traditional sequencing technologies and greatly promoting the development of personalized diagnosis and precision medicine. This article summarizes its latest research progress in studying the tumor microenvironment, metabolic reprogramming, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the EC research, providing new insights and ideas for the study, clinical diagnosis, and precision treatment of EC.
