Abstract
Abstract Introduction Low‐grade gliomas (LGGs) are currently considered a premalignant condition for high‐grade gliomas (HGGs) and are characterized by a relatively intact immune system. Immunotherapeutic modalities may offer a safe and effective treatment option for these patients. However, the CD2–CD58 axis, an important component of the immunological synapse, remains unknown in LGG. Methods RNA‐seq data from TCGA databases were analyzed. Immune cell infiltration was determined using a single‐sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) based on integrated immune gene sets from published studies. Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, univariate and multivariate logistic analysis, and the ESTIMATE algorithm were employed to evaluate the impact of the CD2–CD58 axis on adult LGG patients. Results The expression of the CD2–CD58 axis was found to be elevated with increasing of WHO grade (p
