Immunohistochemistry was performed to analyze the expression of GSK-3β, PTEN, and PDL1. Methods: We evaluated 95 lung cancer specimens from biopsies and surgical resections. This study investigated the correlation between GSK-3β expression and clinically relevant molecular features of lung adenocarcinoma (PDL1 score, PTEN expression and driver mutations). GSK-3β phosphorylates target pro-oncogenes and regulates programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1).
