Core Tip	The development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) involves a stepwise progression from intraepithelial neoplasia (IN) to carcinoma (CA). Examining the genes and immune cell infiltration in the microenvironment associated with the multi-stage progression of ESCC is essential for facilitating diagnosis and early intervention. A total of 86 crucial genes linked with ESCC development were discovered using transcriptome sequencing. These genes were enriched in pathways related to keratinization, epidermal cell differentiation, and interleukin (IL)-17 signaling. Additionally, the infiltration of macrophages and abnormal alterations of inflammation-associated cytokines (e.g., IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10) in peripheral blood may be strongly linked with the development of ESCC.
