Validation of the direct regulation of STAT2 on PD-L1 through ChIP-seq profiles and cell experiments. (a) The mRNA expressions of STAT2 and PD-L1 were significantly correlated (r = 0.53, p < 0.05). (b) ChIP-seq profiles of STAT2 in colon cancer cell line revealed that STAT2 could directly bind to PD-L1 promoter. And there was a strong overlap between STAT2 binding sites and the predicted regions (Region 1 in dark blue, or Region 2 in light blue). (c) The knockdown of STAT2 could lead to downregulation of PD-L1 significantly (p < 0.05). (d) The overexpression of STAT2 could lead to upregulation of PD-L1 significantly (p < 0.05). *p < 0.05; ****p < 0.0001.
