However, STAT1-57 genes were also disproportionately elevated in hyperproliferative conditions, such as within wound margins (P = 8.8×10−14; GSEA) and non-melanoma skin cancers, e.g., squamous cell carcinoma (P = 1.5×10−10), basal cell carcinoma (P = 8.5×10−6; GSEA) and actinic keratosis (P = 1.2×10−15; GSEA). Here, STAT1 is linked to melanoma.
