CD8A and hepatocellular carcinoma: Dysfunctions of T cells including cell repertoire distributional aberrance, transcriptional regulation and pathway regulative changes, were found to be liable for various kinds of tumorigenesis, and higher proportion of CD3+ or CD8+ T cells were validated to have correlation with better clinical outcomes in both HCC and iCCA [58–60], therefore T cell targeted intervenes are concerned as potential immune therapeutic strategies for PLC.
