CD8A and cancer: A large number of these genes were associated with antigen processing and presentation [i.e. D74, CD8A, SLA-DOB, SLA-DRB1, SLA-DQA, HSPA1L], intestinal immune network for IgA production [i.e. CD40, IL6, TGFβ1], Jak-STAT signaling pathway [i.e. IL6, STAT2 and PIK3R5], TGF-ß signaling pathway [i.e. TGF-β and PIK3R5], pathways in cancer [i.e. LEF1, PIK3R5, NOS2] and glycerolipid metabolism [i.e. GK, PNLIPRP1] et al. (Table 2, Fig. 4).
