Our results indicated that BCC FIB populations have lower overall entropy than those of PTS and that TMEM119+ FIBs show the most stability (Fig. 4C), suggesting that FIB I to III may display higher likelihoods of transition to those FIBs that are most juxtaposed to BCC tumor nests (FIB IV). This evidence concerns the gene TMEM119 and skin basal cell carcinoma.
