Downregulation of CCL22 and Mutation of NOTCH1 in Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma Decreases Th2 Cell Recruitment and Expression to Predict Poor Clinical Outcomes
Abstract:Background: Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) exhibits a high rate of local recurrence and cervical lymph node metastasis. The effect of the tumor microenvironment on TSCC remains unclear.Methods: Transcriptome data and somatic mutation data of TSCC were obtained from the HNSC project of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Immune filtration analysis between early stage (clinical stage I–II) and advanced stage (III–IV) was performed using single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis and MCPcounter. Differentially… Show more
