Both T cell populations showed strong expression of several inflammatory and interferon-related genes, such as ENSCAFG00000006485 (interferon induced transmembrane protein IFITM), CXCR4, and CLEC2D. Consistent with this, the insulin-expressing cancer cells showed significant upregulation of inflammatory response genes, particularly C15orf48 (NMES1) (adj. The gene discussed is CXCR4; the disease is cancer.
