Article Title: CD40LG Downregulation in Lung Adenocarcinoma: A Prognostic Biomarker Linked to Immune Cell Infiltration and Survival Outcomes

doi: 10.7150/jca.115525

Figure Lengend Snippet: CD40LG is down-regulated in multiple cancer types, and this down-regulation has significant prognostic implications. (A) Violin plots showed the differential expression of CD40LG in 34 cancer types compared with normal tissues. (B) Body map showing CD40LG expression levels in various normal human tissues. (C) Cox regression analysis of OS demonstrated the prognostic role of CD40LG in a variety of cancers. (D) Cox regression analysis of PFS demonstrated the prognostic role of CD40LG in a variety of cancers. (E) The veen diagram shows those cancers in which CD40LG has the same prognostic predictive efficacy in OS and PFS.
