We carried out systematic analysis of the escape mechanisms and examined the enrichment of immunosuppressive cell types (MDSCs and Tregs), and the expression of five classes of molecules: key immunoinhibitory genes which may be upregulated to produce tumor escape (for example, CTLA-4), key immunostimulatory genes (for example, OX40), which may be downregulated to avoid immune destruction, as well as major histocompatibility (MHC) class I, MHC class II, and non-classical MHC molecules. The gene discussed is HLA-C; the disease is neoplasm.
