Subsequently, we analyzed SQLE expression and its association with biomarkers of MHC (B2M, HLA-B, HLA-C, TAP1, and TAP2), dendritic cells (BATF3), macrophages (CD68 and IL1A), type-I anti-tumor responses (CD8A and GZMB), and cell proliferation (MKI67) in 178 PAAD tissues (Figure 8C). Here, HLA-C is linked to pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
