These two studies did not report on the relative levels of the two major NF-YA subunits, which are clinically important in breast, lung and HNSCC cancers25–27, nor of the HFD subunits, which might be relevant in light on our recent finding on their overexpression in liver Hepatocarcinomas and HNSCC28,29. Here, NFYA is linked to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
