Our findings demonstrate that tumor-suppressor proteins Oct4 and SOX2 have a prominent expression profile in the primary stage of cancer, but, in the metastatic stage, their expression is downregulated, leading to the failure to prevent metastatic cancer.

<b>Objective:</b> Using the gastric cancer cell line SGC7901, we constructed a cell line that overexpressed octamer-binding protein 4 (Oct4) and SRY-box 2 (Sox2) to explore the stem cell oncological and biological characteristics of these cells and to elucidate the mechanisms of Oct4 and Sox2 in cancer.

Despite the extensive investigation of the cancer stemness as a cause of drug resistance, its role in immune evasion still requires further understanding, and hence, in this article, we further discuss the possibility of this CDK1-SOX2 axis contributing to immune resistance through modulating cell-to-cell interaction directly or indirectly in the tumor microenvironment.
