Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a homogeneous, reproducible HNSCC model originating from the Mouse Oral Cancer 1 (MOC1) HNSCC cell line, and to explore the radiotherapy-induced changes in its tumor microenvironment, using flow cytometry and PD-L1 microSPECT/CT imaging. Here, CD274 is linked to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
