Integrative study reveals the prognostic and immunotherapeutic value of CD274 and PDCD1LG2 in pan-cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: Disorders of CD274 and PDCD1LG2 contribute to immune escape in human cancers, and treatment with anti-programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) has been widely used in recurrent or metastatic tumors. However, integrated studies considering CD274 and PDCD1LG2 across cancers remain limited. Materials and Methods: Differences in expression levels of CD274 and PDCD1LG2 were analyzed in diverse cancer types using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases. The clinical information and matched expression profiles of TCGA patients were obtained to determine the prognostic value of CD274 and PDCD1LG2. Moreover, correlations between CD274 and PDCD1LG2 and the immune signature were analyzed by exploring the TIMER2 and TISIDB databases. We also i
