Analysis of Immune Infiltration Characteristics in Molecular Subtypes of Endome-trial Cancer
摘要
Abstract
Objective:To analyze the infiltration of immune cells in different molecular subtypes of endometrial cancer(EC)at the protein level and explore the correlation between immune infiltration and clinicopathological features.Methods:Clinical data from 75 mismatch repair-deficient(MMR-D)EC cases and 74 mismatch re-pair-proficient(MMR-P)EC cases with comparable differentiation levels,diagnosed at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital between January 2013 and January 2021,were selected.Molecular classification of EC was con-ducted according to the ProMisE standard.Immunohistochemistry(IHC)staining and fluorescent multiplexed im-munohistochemistry(F-mIHC)techniques were used to quantify the distribution of CD8+T cells,regulatory T cells(Tregs),and macrophages.The clinicopathological features and immune infiltration characteristics of different subtypes were investigated.Results:Among 149 samples,75 were MMR-D,8 were POLE-mutated(POLEmut),13 were p53-mutated(p53abn),and 53 were p53 wild-type(p53wt).The infiltration characteristics of CD8+T cells,Tregs,and macrophages were no statistically significant differences correlated with age and pathological stage(P>0.05).Among the molecular subtypes of EC,MMR-D tumors demonstrated a significantly higher densi-ty of CD8+T cells and Tregs compared to MMR-P tumors(P<0.05).Further comparison across the four EC mo-lecular subtypes revealed that the MMR-D subtype,which had a favorable prognosis,displayed a significantly high density of CD8+T cells compared to the p53abn subtype and the p53wt subtype(P<0.05).Additionally,the Tregs density of the MMR-D tumors was significantly higher than that of the p53wt tumors,in both the tumor area(P<0.05)and the stroma area(P<0.05).The POLEmut type tumors,which had the best prognosis,showed a high infiltration of CD8+T cells and Tregs cells compared to the p53abn and p53wt types,although there was no signifi-cant statistical difference(P>0.05).The p53wt subtype,which had a moderate prognosis,exhibited low density of CD8+T cells(P<0.05)and Tregs(tumor area,P<0.01,stroma area,P<0.05)compared to MMR-D tumors.The p53abn subtype,which was associated with the worst prognosis,exhibited higher infiltration of M2-like macro-phages than the MMR-D subtype(P<0.05)and the p53wt subtype(P<0.05)in tumor region,and lower CD8+T cell density than the MMR-D subtype(P<0.05).No significant statistical difference was observed in the density of M1-like macrophages across the four molecular subtypes in either the tumor or stroma areae(P>0.05).Conclu-sions:There was no statistically significant relation found between infiltration characteristics of immune cells and clinicopathological features.The types and distribution of infiltrated immune cells were different across these EC molecular subtypes.This indicated that ECs with different molecular subtype exhibited different features of immune infiltration which is closely associated with patient prognosis.关键词
