Our results indicate that the wild-type KRAS/TP53 colorectal cancer cell lines may respond better to interferon gamma treatment, which causes increased programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 expression and may be a mechanism underlying the better responses to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapies in wild-type KRAS and wild-type TP53 colorectal cancer. The gene discussed is IFNG; the disease is colorectal cancer.
