It is unclear how immunohistochemical expression patterns of HLA class I in the pre-malignant phase of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) alter during the clinical follow-up period. The present study aimed to demonstrate the correlation between the immunohistochemical expression pattern of HLA class I and the CIN grade through repeated examinations during the clinical course. Expression patterns of HLA class I, p16INK4a, and PD-L1 were immunohistochemically examined using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) sections of biopsy or conization samples that were obtained from 20 patients diagnosed with CIN.
