Results showed that serum PD-1 and PD-L1 levels were significantly higher in cats with HER2-positive (p = 0.017; p = 0.032) and triple negative (TN) normal-like mammary carcinomas (p = 0.004; p = 0.015), showing a strong positive correlation between serum CTLA-4 and TNF-α levels. The gene discussed is PDCD1; the disease is breast carcinoma.
