Furthermore, the TISIDB database provides evidence that not only CENPM is positively associated with immune checkpoint genes such as CTLA4, PDCD1, LAG3, TIGIT, but also chemokines and receptors (such as CCL5, CXCL13, CXCR3, CXCR5) may be responsible for the malignant phenotype of CENPM in ccRCC. The gene discussed is PDCD1; the disease is nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
