CD8A and hepatocellular carcinoma: The results based on the validation set revealed that HCC samples with elevated EOGT expression had markedly low fractions of naive B cells (P < 0.01), CD8+ T cells (P < 0.001), and monocytes (P < 0.001), whereas HCC samples with elevated EOGT expression had significantly high fractions of T follicular helper cells (P < 0.001), M0 macrophages (P < 0.001), and neutrophils (P < 0.01) (Supplementary Figure 3K).
