According to Schneider et al., a significant upregulation of T cell coinhibitory molecule B7-H3 (a member of the programmed death ligand (PD-L) family) in NSCLC tumour-residing DC contributed to immunosuppression phenotypes, as evidenced by reduced T cell proliferation and IL-12 level as well as elevated IL-10 concentration [71]. This evidence concerns the gene IL10 and neoplasm.
