Homeobox D9 drives the malignant phenotypes and enhances the Programmed death ligand-1 expression in non-small cell lung cancer cells via binding to Angiopoietin-2 promoter

Abstract Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Homeobox D9 (HOXD9), a member of the HOX family of transcription factors, plays a driver role in development of multiple cancers. Angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2) is reportedly to facilitate angiogenesis, grow...
