CD276, an immune checkpoint, is upregulated in various cancers.This study aimed to evaluate the role of CD276 in tumorigenesis, prognosis and immunity for COAD.MethodsThe expression profile of CD276 gene in COAD was established by using RNA-sequencing transcriptomic data of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases. The biological f… Show more
