From previous reports, there is evidence that cancer cells overexpress inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-interacting protein-like 1 (ITPRIPL1) to evade the immune system and promote tumor growth. Tissue samples from patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were collected and used for studying the expression (intensity and extent) patterns of ITPRIPL1 and its diagnostic and prognostic value in this cancer type.
