Characterising neutrophil subtypes in cancer using scRNA sequencing demonstrates the importance of IL-1β/CXCR2 axis in generation of metastasis specific neutrophils

Neutrophils are a highly heterogenous cellular population. However, a thorough examination of the different transcriptional neutrophil states between health and malignancy, has not been performed. We utilised single-cell RNA-sequencing of human and murine datasets, both publicly available and independently generated, to identify neutrophil transcriptomic subtypes and developmental lineages in health and malignancy. Datasets of lung, breast and colorectal cancer (CRC) were integrated to …
