DDR-deficient types had lower expressions of STING1 (p = 0.01), CD28 (p = 0.020), HLA-DRB6 (p = 0.014) in adenocarcinoma, lower TNFRSF4 (p = 0.017), and TGFB1 expressions (p = 0.033) in squamous carcinoma, and higher CD40 (p = 0.012) and TNFRSF14 expressions (p = 0.022) in SCLC. Here, TNFRSF4 is linked to small cell lung carcinoma.
