چکیده

CD4+Th subsets play an important role in tumor progression but their expression characteristics and clinical significance in human tumor microenvironment remains unclear. In this study, we aim to analyze the expression and clinical significance of tissue-infiltrating Th1, Th2 and Th17 in lung cancer by flow cytometry. We found that the frequency of CD3+CD4+IFN-γ+Th1 in tumor nest was significantly lower than that in tumor boundary, adjacent normal lung tissue or corresponding lymph node tissue; the frequency of CD3+CD4+IL-4+Th2 in tumor nest was significantly higher than that in tumor boundary, adjacent normal lung tissue or corresponding lymph node tissue; the frequency of CD3+CD4+IL-17+Th17 in tumor nest was significantly lower than that in tumor boundary, but not adjacent normal tissue or corresponding lymph node tissue. Survival analysis of 2-years survival after surgery showed that Th1high group was significantly lower compared with Th1low group; Th2high and Th17low is a good prognosis index compared with the Th2low and Th17high groups respectively, but this difference failed to significance. In addition, we also found that PD-1 expression showed a high level on lung tumor tissues and adjacent non- tumor tissue infiltrating T cells, and no significant difference was found between the two groups. However PD-L1 on CD45+CD14+mononcytes/macrophages in tumor tissue show a significantly higher level compared with that in adjacent nontumor tissues. In vitro stimulation experiments showed that IFN-γ could significantly increase PD-L1 expression on monocyte. In conclusion, we for the first time found Th1high is a poor indicator for prognosis of lung cancer.

Evaluation of preoperative elevation of serum c-reactive protein as an indicator for prognosis of colorectal cancer

  Abstract   Background : Cancer has not been elucidated in colerectal site. C-reactive protein   (CRP) is a product synthesized in hepatocytes and has been reported to be up-regulated   by such proinflammatory cytokines as interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6),   and tumor necrosis factor (TNF). The significance of a preoperative serum elevation   was evaluated using CRP as a predictive i...

Exosomes isolation and characterization in serum is feasible in non-small cell lung cancer patients: critical analysis of evidence and potential role in clinical practice

Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles of endolysosomal origin, released by several cytotypes in physiological and pathological conditions. Tumor derived exosomes, interacting with other cells of the tumor microenvironment, modulate tumor progression, angiogenic switch, metastasis, and immune escape. Recently, extracellular vesicles were proposed as excellent biomarkers for disease monitoring and pro...

P112: Tumour Associated Macrophages and Vasculogenic Mimicry: A New Insight in Glioblastoma Treatment

Glioblastoma is one of the most common brain tumors in adults with poor prognosis, aggressiveness, and treatment resistance. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) consists of generating vascular-like channels by tumor cells, independent of endothelial angiogenesis. Studies showed in glioblastoma, the proportion of VM to all vascular channels is associated with poor prognosis and higher invasiveness levels....

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia, biology, new diagnosis and treatment: review article

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignancy of B CD5+cells and is the most common type of leukemia in adults. The disease is more common in men over 50 years in western countries. CLL is associated with defective apoptosis in B cells. CLL was traditionally regarded as a disease that occurs before naïve B cells meet the antigen in the lymph nodes. Laboratory diagnosis requires white blood...

Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor and the association with Demographic and Prognostic Factors in Patients with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Introduction: Growth, proliferation, survival, and differentiation are the prominent characteristics of cells, which are affected by cancer. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a pivotal role in the effective control of these features. Given the significance of EGFR signaling pathway in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), EGFR expression is influential on these cell characteristics. I...
