CD8A and hepatocellular carcinoma: Furthermore, we evaluated the infiltration of immune cells in the distinct CEP192 group based on the ssGSEA method and found that the vast majority of immune cells, including innate-immune cells [gamma delta T cells (Tgd), natural killer cells (NK), natural killer T cells (NKT), monocytes, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), macrophages, neutrophils, mast cells, dendritic cells (DCs), and eosinophils] and adaptive-immune cells [B cells, CD8+ T cells, type 1 T helper cells (Th1), and regulatory T cells (Treg)], were significantly decreased in the CEP192 high group of HCC (Figure 6E).
