TIMELESS expression in LUAD tumor tissues was significantly negatively correlated with neutrophil biomarkers, dendritic cell biomarkers (HLA-DPB1, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DRA, HLA-DPA1, CD1C) and an immunophenoscore that predicted outcomes associated with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors. The gene discussed is HLA-DPA1; the disease is neoplasm.
