CD8A and neoplasm: Another study identified regulatory mechanisms associated with CD8 T-cell depletion by analyzing scATAC-seq profiles of serial tumor biopsies before and after programmed cell death protein 1 blockade [67].Twenty-two human IDH mutant gliomas were analyzed by scATAC-seq, which explained how different subtypes of IDH mutant gliomas maintain different phenotypes and tumor microenvironments despite being derived from a common spectral hierarchy, and found that ATRX regulates glial identity and tumor microenvironment in IDH mutant gliomas [68].
