Selective loss of Y chromosomes in lung adenocarcinoma modulates the tumor immune environment through cancer/testis antigens
2024-09-22
Abstract excerpt
There is increasing recognition that the allosomes, X and Y, play an important role in health and disease beyond the determination of biological sex. A loss of the Y chromosome (LOY) occurs in most solid tumors in males and is often associated with worse survival, suggesting that LOY may give tumor cells a growth or survival advantage. We here use an expression-based continuous measure of LOY that allows us to inv...
