CTLA-4 and PD-1 Ligand Gene Expression in Epithelial Thyroid Cancers

CTLA-4 and PD-1 Ligand Gene Expression in Epithelial Thyroid Cancers

The dysregulation of PD-1 ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2) and CTLA-4 ligands (CD80 and CD86) represents a tumor strategy to escape the immune surveillance. Here, the expression of PD-L1, PD-L2, CD80, and CD86 was evaluated at the mRNA level in 94 patients affected by papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and...
