HLA allele-specific expression loss in tumors can shorten survival and hinder immunotherapy
2020-10-04
Abstract excerpt
Efficient presentation of aberrant peptide fragments by the human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA-I) genes is necessary for immune detection and killing of cancer cells. Patient HLA-I genotypes are known to impact the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy, and the somatic loss of HLA-I heterozygosity has been established as a factor in immune evasion. While global deregulated expression of HLA-I has been reported in dif...
