Corrected demethylation percentage of immune checkpoint promoters in tumor tissues. CpG methylation status of the promoter regions of PD-1, CTLA-4, TIM-3, LAG-3, PD-L1, TIGIT, and galectin-9 was analyzed by bisulfite sequencing of the genomic DNA isolated from colorectal tumor and normal colon tissues from 14 patients. A bar diagram shows the average demethylation percentage from the 14 NT and TT samples of each gene (a). A bar diagram shows the corrected demethylation percentage of immune checkpoints by subtracting average demethylation percentage of NT from TT (b). A bar diagram shows the corrected demethylation percentage of immune checkpoints (c) and their ligands (d) in 14 individual patients
