AKT-mediated β-catenin S552 phosphorylation and nuclear β-catenin are positively correlated with PD-L1 expression and inversely correlated with the tumor infiltration of CD8+ T cells in human glioblastoma specimens, highlighting the clinical significance of β-catenin activation in tumor immune evasion (21). Here, AKT1 is linked to glioblastoma.
