MERTK and cancer: Except for BAI1, CD31, and MerTK, the enhanced expressions of Axl, Tyro3, Gas6, MFGE8, Stab2, Tim-4, CX3CL1, IDO1, Rac1, and PD-L1 were associated with decreased sensitivity of the cancer cells to many anti-cancer drugs; however, for other common immune checkpoint-related molecules, only enhanced expressions of PD-1, CD28, CTLA4, and HVEM were associated with decreased sensitivity of the cancer cells to a few drugs.
