Huang CY, et al. - This study entailed the assessment of characteristics of PD-L1 expression, CD8⁺ T-cell infiltration and their link in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). As per findings, an interaction was obvious between PD-L1 expression and CD8⁺ T-cell immunity in HCC but PD-L1 did not serve as a prognostic factor for the patients.
