Additionally, a positive correlation between ITGA2, E-cadherin, and PD-L1 in the tumor region (r=0.559, P<0.001 and r=0.511, P<0.001), and PD-L1 in the stroma region (r=0.512, P<0.001).The expression levels of ITGA2, CD4, and CD8 were found to be higher in pancreatic cancer tissues compared to adjacent tissues (P < 0.05). This evidence concerns the gene CD274 and pancreatic neoplasm.
