IntroductionMalignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) is a rare, aggressive pediatric tumor of nuclear lineage. It is mainly characterized by germline or somatic SMARCB1 (INI1) driver mutations. To characterize the potential for immunotherapy in untreated and treated MRT, current study investigated tumor mutational burden (TMB) and other biomarkers in MRT.Material and methodsNormal-tumor paired whole exome sequencing (WES) and/or immunohistochemistry (IHC) of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins, PD-L1, PD-1 and CD8 were performed in 16 cases, some with both primary and relapsed tumor.ResultsFive cases subjected to WES demonstrated germline SMARCB1 (INI1) mutations. TMB was 0.7–1.07/Mb in 4 of the 5 primary untreated tumors, and 33.81/Mb in one case with pathogenic MMR, POLD, and POLE mutations. Ten cases tested for MMR status by IHC showed retained nuclear expression of the proteins. Eight of the 16 cases (8/16, 50%) showed membranous expression of PD-L1 in 10–70% of tumor cells (tumor proportion score, TPS). Nine cases (9/16, 56.3%) showed high (>2/HPF) tumor infiltrating lymphocytes with PD-1 staining ranging 10–60%, correlating with tumor PD-L1 staining (p < 0.0001). Between post-treatment metastatic tumors and the pre-treatment primary tumors, TMB was similar while PD-L1 TPS was similar or lower.ConclusionMRT has a low TMB. Nonetheless, because a subset of MRT cases have a PD-L1 TPS greater than the cutoff for checkpoint therapy in other malignancies, the utility of immune checkpoint inhibitors should be studied in this patient population. 相似文献

BackgroundActivation of immune checkpoints, e.g. PD-1/PD-L1 axis, in cancer microenvironment, enables evasion of host anti-cancer immune response and drives tumor progression. To date, there have been only a few studies analyzing PD-1/PD-L1 expression in pediatric malignancies.AimIn the current study, we aimed to assess PD-L1 and PD-1 expression in pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and to investigate their clinicopathological associations.Materials and methods: The study enrolled 31 children with RMS. Tissue microarrays with representative tumor tissue samples were stained with anti-PD-1 NAT105 clone (Ventana, Roche) and two different antibodies against PD-L1: SP142 (Ventana, Roche) and 22C3 (DAKO). Adequate positive controls were applied. Their expression was assessed in tumor-associated immune cells (TAICs) and in the tumor cells separately.ResultsWe did not detect any positive PD-L1 staining in analyzed tumors using SP142 antibody; however, in 11 cases (35.48%) its expression was revealed by means of 22C3 clone. The staining was restricted to TAICs in all cases, which no reaction in tumor cells. The 5-year relapse free survival (RFS) rate was significantly higher in PD-L1 positive cases (61.5% vs 25.0%, p = 0.024), but it most likely results from more frequent PD-L1 expression in low-stage RMS. PD-1 expression on TAICs was detected in 7 cases and did not influence the prognosis.ConclusionsWe found that PD-L1 expression on TAICs, as detected with the use of 22C3 clone but not SP142 antibody, tends to be associated with low-stage RMS in children. PD-1 expression on TAICs in RMS is neither associated with distinct clinical course nor with clinicopathological features. 相似文献

BackgroundCarcinosarcoma (CS) or malignant mixed Müllerian tumor (MMMT), is a rare malignant biphasic tumor, which contains both a malignant epithelial and mesenchymal component. That being said, they have an aggressive clinical course. Given that immune checkpoint inhibitors have mustered significant excitement in the oncology world - immunotherapy could offer significant promise to this poor prognostic cancer subtype. A total of 75 carcinosarcoma cases were identified in our institutional database from 2010 to 2019 and immunohistochemistry for PD-L1, PD-1 and IDO-1 was performed. Out of the 75 patients, 65(87 %) demonstrated >1 % PD-1 expression and 50(67 %) expressed >1 % PD-L1 in either the tumoral and immune stromal components. 29 (39 %) cases demonstrated >20 % PD-1 expression and 14 (19 %) cases expressed >20 % PD-L1. 41(55 %) cases demonstrating co-expression of PD-1 and PD-L1. For IDO-1 64 (85 %) patients showed at least >5 %, while 34 (45 %) showed staining above 20 %. 45 patients (60 %) showed co-expression of IDO-1 and PD-L1, while 59 (79 %) patients had co-expression of IDO and PD-1 above 5 and 1 % respectively. Regarding clinicopathologcial features; older patients (> 65) were more likely to express PD-L1 (>1 %) and IDO-1 (>20 %). For tumor size, IDO-1 expression (>5 %), along with PD-1/IDO-1 Co-expression (>1/5 %), was associated with larger tumor size (>5cm). For myometrial invasion, CSs with >50 % invasion were more likely to express IDO-1 (>20 %) and PD-1/IDO-1 (>1/5 %). Ultimately, the effect of IDO-1, PD-1 and PD-L1 on the clinical profile may be less important than its potential use as a immunotherapeutic, where safe and effective corresponding drugs could be used to treat particular patient populations. Future clinical trials are needed to decipher the association between immune check point inhibitor expression and therapeutic response. This is the only way to definitively prove immune checkpoint immunohistochemistry as predictive biomarkers in this cancer subtype. 相似文献

Background/aimMicrosatellite instability tests and programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) in the immune checkpoint pathway are the tests that determine who will benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. We aimed to show the expression of DNA mismatch repair proteins and PD-1/PD-L1 molecules that inhibit immune checkpoints, to explain the relationship between them, and to demonstrate their predictive role in recurrent and nonrecurrent glioblastoma.Materials and methodsWe analyzed 27 recurrent and 47 nonrecurrent cases at our archive. We performed immunohistochemical analysis to determine expressions of PD-1, PD-L1, and mismatch repair proteins in glioblastoma. We evaluated the relationship between these two group and compared the results with the clinicopathological features.ResultsThe mean age of diagnosis was significantly lower in recurrent glioblastoma patients. Median survival was longer in this group. We found that PD-L1 expression was reduced in recurrent cases. Additionally, recurrent cases had a significantly higher rate of microsatellite instability. Loss of PMS2 was high in both group but was substantially higher in recurrent cases.ConclusionThe presence of microsatellite instability and low PD-L1 levels, which are among the causes of treatment resistance in glioblastoma, were found to be compatible with the literature in our study, with higher rates in recurrent cases. In recurrent cases with higher mutations and where immunotherapy resistance is expected less, low PD-L1 levels thought that different combinations with other immune checkpoint inhibitors can be tried as predictive and prognostic marker in GBM patients. 相似文献

IntroductionIncreased expression of Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) on cancer cells and immune cells predict response to PD-1/PDL1 inhibitors. Data regarding frequency and pattern of PD-L1 expression in NSCLC from India is not available.ObjectivesTo analyse PD-L1 expression on tumour cells (TC) and immune cells (IC) and to correlate PD-L1 expression with baseline clinico-pathological characteristics, oncogenic drivers and outcome data.Materials and methodsPD-L1 expression on tumour cells and immune cells was analysed.ResultsEighty-nine cases of resected NSCLC were included. Squamous cell carcinoma was more common than adenocarcinoma. IC were present in almost all cases. Immunopositivity for PD-L1 in TC and IC was 27% and 18% respectively. PD-L1 immunopositivity in TC or IC did not correlate with age, sex, stage or mutation status however sarcomatoid carcinoma and solid predominant adenocarcinomas showed higher positivity rates. PD-L1 immunopositivity in ICs was found to correlate with better disease free survival.ConclusionPD-L1 immunopositivity was seen in a quarter of NSCLC patients in India. PDL1 positivity on immune cells may be associated with better prognosis in resected NSCLC. However the prognostic value of PD-L1 and clinical response to check point inhibitors in Indian population need to be validated in larger studies. 相似文献

There are few comprehensive studies from Asia on clinicopathologic features of mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient endometrial carcinomas, including rarely from our country.One hundred and four cases of endometrial carcinomas were tested for four MMR proteins by immunohistochemistry.Among 50 MMR-deficient (MMRd) tumors(48%), age-range was 27–68 years(median = 53) and tumor size(n = 34) varied from 1.2–10 cm(average = 4.6). Lower uterine segment(LUS) was involved in 21/31 cases(67.7%). Histopathologically, all cases were endometrioid adenocarcinomas(EMACs), of FIGO grade 2(low-grade)(18 cases) and 3(high-grade)(32 cases), displaying de-differentiated, undifferentiated and lymphoepithelioma(LE)-like patterns, in 24 cases(48%). Tumor infiltration ≥ half of myometrium was seen in 30/44 cases (68.1%); lymphovascular emboli in 19/43 cases(44.1%); and lymph node metastasis in 7/22(31.8%) cases. Uncommonly, clear cell component(n = 2) and focal neuroendocrine differentiation (n = 2) were observed. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells showed paired loss of MLH1 and PMS2 in 33(66%) and MSH2 and MSH6 in 14(28%) cases, along with loss of MSH2 and PMS2, in two and a single case, respectively. Nine patients(18%) were treated for another cancer and 9/33(27.2%) disclosed familial history of cancer. MSH2 was the most frequently lost MMR protein in those cases. Additionally, tumor cells displayed ER positivity in 41/50 cases(82%), PR in 38/41cases(92.6%) and wild-type p53 staining in 24/28 cases(85.7%). Tumor with LE-pattern showed PDLI immunoexpression.Certain clinicopathologic features suggestive for MMRd associated ECs, such as relatively large-sized tumors, involving LUS; especially high-grade, infiltrative EMACs, with undifferentiated/de-differentiated, and LE-like patterns; showing deep muscle invasion, frequent PR immunoexpression and invariably, wild-type p53 immunostaining can be useful in screening cases of Lynch syndrome. This constitutes the first report on these tumors from our country. 相似文献

BackgroundThis study aims to explore the mechanism of immunosuppression in septic Acute Renal Injury (AKI) and the role of programmed death-1 (PD-1/PD-L1) pathway in septic AKI.MethodsThis study established a septic AKI model by Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) in C57/B6 mice, ELISA was used to test the level of lactate and creatinine in serum, blood was collected for flow cytometry and kidney samples for Western blot analyses. This study further analyzed the expression of PD-L1 in kidney and the expression of PD-1 in CD4+, CD8+ T cell, and the number of CD3+ T cells to identify apoptosis in T cells in the blood.ResultsThe CLP sepsis model induced AKI in C57/B6 mice; The expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 were increased in septic AKI mice; PD-1/PD-L1 induced apoptosis in T cells: the number of lymphocytes decreased by 64%, while the number of CD3+ T cells decreased by 27% compared with the sham group; Results also indicated that lactate up-regulates expression of PD-L1 in the kidney.ConclusionsLactate activated PD-1/PD-L1 pathway can induce immunosuppression by inducing apoptosis in lymphocytes in septic AKI. Moreover, blocking the receptor of lactate or PD-1/PD-L1 might be a new therapy for septic AKI. 相似文献

BackgroundEndometrial carcinosarcomas have high malignant potential with a high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. Immunotherapy may be a promising treatment option. The aim of this study is to evaluate the expression of PD-L1/PD-L2 and its relationship to mismatch repair (MMR) protein status and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) density.MethodsWe performed immunohistochemical analyses of PD-L1 (clone 22C3), PD-L2 (clone TY25), MSH-2, MSH-6, PMS-2, and MLH-1 in 77 tumors. We count TILs using CD8 antibody. Clinicopathologic features were recorded and statistically correlated with immunohistochemical results. Kaplan-Meier analyses were used to analyze the prognosis.ResultsWhile PD-L1 positivity was seen more commonly in MMR protein deficient tumors (p = 0.010), PD-L2 positivity was seen more commonly in MMR protein proficient tumors (p = 0.003). PD-L1 positivity was also found to be more common in carcinosarcoma with high TIL infiltration. PD-L2 positivity was associated with decreased overall survival (OS) rates (p = 0.043, p = 0.043, respectively), whereas the PD-L1 positivity and TIL density were not significantly associated with OS rate. The OS rate of patients with MMR protein proficient tumors was significantly lower compared with those with MMR protein deficient tumors (p = 0.042). The lower TILs infiltration was associated with a shorter disease-free survival (DFS) rate. PD-L1 and PD-L2 positivity did not affect the DFS rate.ConclusionsPD-L1/PD-L2 might be a better target for immunotherapy in endometrial carcinosarcoma. PD-L2 positivity was also associated with a worse clinical outcome in patients with endometrial carcinosarcoma, suggesting that PD-L2 status can be used to predict clinical behavior. Further studies are needed to elucidate the relationship between PD-L1/PD-L2 expression and therapeutic response. 相似文献

In this study, we try to testify the relationship between the programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) passway and Treg cells in maternal-fetal immune regulation through PD-1 blockade on lymphocytes of normal early pregnancy in vitro and investigation of the PD-1 and PD-L1 changes in early recurrent miscarriage patients. CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells and PD-1 (CD279) positive cell were detected in deciduas in early recurrent miscarriage patients by flow cytometry. And the normal early pregnant women were as controls. Meanwhile the mRNA level of PD-1 and molecular expression of PD-L1 in deciduas of early recurrent miscarriage patients were detected by real time RT-PCR test and Immunohistochemical staining respectively. Also through antibody blocking assay to block PD-1 on lymphocytes of normal early pregnancy in vitro further testify the relationship between PD-1/PD-L1 and Treg cells, the results were analyzed by flow cytometry. CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells decreased both in deciduas in RM (P < 0.05), and for all almost 100% Treg cells (CD4+ CD25+) expressed PD-1, but there was no difference between the PD-1 positive cells in decidual lymphocytes in RM and that in normal pregnancy women (P > 0.05). PD-L1 mRNA in deciduas decreased in RM (P < 0.001), but PD-1 mRNA no difference (P > 0.1). After PD-1 blockade there was no change in CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells percentage, while the CD4+ T cell percentage increased (P < 0.01), as well as the level of IFN-gamma in cells supernatant (P < 0.01). PD-1 blockade has a little influence on the number of Treg cells, and may lead to impaired Treg cells function, the decrease of PD-L1 may closely relates to the occurrence of early recurrent miscarriage and implies that Treg cells may through PD-1/PD-L1 pathway play a role of immunosuppression regulation, and the impairment of Treg cells function in recurrent early abortion cases may be due to PD-L1 decrease in deciduas or trophoblast cells rather than PD-1 change. 相似文献

PurposeUniversal screening for Lynch syndrome (LS) on resected colorectal carcinomas (CRCs) and endometrial carcinomas (ECs) was implemented in Iceland in 2017 using immunohistochemistry (IHC) for mismatch repair (MMR) proteins. We examined the efficacy of the universal screening algorithm to detect LS and the diagnostic accuracy of MMR IHC by comparing results with a population-based genotype database.MethodsAll patients diagnosed with CRC or EC per the Icelandic Cancer Registry from 2017 to 2019 who had tumor MMR IHC performed were included. Pathology reports and patient charts were reviewed. MMR IHC stains were crossmatched with genotyping results obtained from the deCODE database.ResultsIHC staining was done on 404 patients with CRC and 74 patients with EC. A total of 61 (15.1%) patients with CRC and 15 (20.3%) patients with EC were MMR-deficient. MMR IHC had 88.9% sensitivity in identifying patients with LS and a positive predictive value of 10.7%. Only 50% of individuals were appropriately referred for genetic testing, leading to underdiagnosis of LS.ConclusionUniversal screening for LS using MMR protein IHC in CRC and EC accurately identified patients appropriate for genetic testing in a population with MSH6 and PMS2 LS predominance. Because of lack of referral to genetic counseling, only 50% of patients with LS were identified through the screening algorithm. 相似文献

BackgroundPD-L1 testing is currently performed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). We questioned whether the results of PCR-based measurement of PD-L1 RNA expression correlate with IHC scores obtained by different commercial assays.Materials and methods167 consecutive non-squamous non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs) were analyzed for PD-L1 RNA expression and 22C3, SP263, and SP142 IHC scoring using recommended cut-offs. RNA expression was divided into low, moderate, and high categories.ResultsRNA and protein expression demonstrated moderate correlation as continuous variables. Using prespecified RNA cut-offs, PCR testing showed a high negative predictive value towards the IHC analysis: the share of PD-L1 protein-negative tumors among cases classified as PD-L1-low by the PCR test reached 92–99% for all three antibodies. Meanwhile, about half of cases with moderate to high PD-L1 RNA expression had IHC staining in less than 1% tumor cells as determined by 22C3 or SP263 antibodies. Among the 51 discordant cases, which had <1% tumor staining by both 22C3 and SP263 clones but high RNA level, 29 (57%) showed ≥1% positive immune cells by SP263 and/or 22C3, 14 cases (27%) had detectable IHC expression in 0.1–0.9% tumor or immune cells by SP263 and/or 22C3, and 8 (16%) were entirely negative by IHC.ConclusionSome NSCLCs demonstrate readily detectable PD-L1 expression on the level of RNA, but fall below commonly accepted cut-offs by IHC. It remains to be studied whether these discrepancies are attributed to technical or biological reasons. Clinical sensitivity of these tumors to immune therapy deserves additional investigations. 相似文献

Urothelial carcinomas (UC) of the bladder are biologically and clinically heterogeneous and the most common malignancy of the urinary tract in developed countries worldwide, where several checkpoint targets as programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death protein (PD-1) have received the most attention in the treatment of bladder cancer. However, the clinicopathological impact of this biomarker has not yet been established enough.ObjectiveTo evaluate programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression in UCs of the bladder in Bulgarian and French patients' samples.Materials and methodsUrothelial bladder carcinomas cases from 2016–2020 were retrospectively were analyzed. The cohort included 105 cases: 42 (40%) low grade and 63 (60%) high grade. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for PD-L1 expression was performed using an anti-PD-L1 primary antibody clone 22C3pharmDx only to 73/105 cases.ResultsApproximately 21/73 cases (28.8%) of urothelial bladder carcinomas demonstrated positive PD-L1 expression, and in 52/73 cases (71.2%) were negative. Positive PD-L1 expression was associated with high grade and high pathologic stage (p < 0.001). We found that PD-L1 was expressed in a significant percentage in UC with squamous differentiation (40%), followed by classic UC (30%). An association between histological grading systems of bladder UC (WHO1973 and WHO 2016) and the TNM-staging system, estimated by Pearson correlation coefficients (r = 0.590 and r = 0.583, respectively, p < 0.001) was observed.ConclusionsWe found that PD-L1 expression is increased in patients with muscle-invasive UC, and PD-L1 might be a new biomarker that correlates with the pathological stage of urothelial bladder cancer and might predict recurrence-free survival. 相似文献

IntroductionMicrosatellite instability (MSI) testing is recommended for all colonic and endometrial carcinomas to screen for Lynch syndrome. The role of MSI testing in pancreatic adenocarcinoma has not been well-established. Screening can be done via immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for mismatch repair (MMR) proteins (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2). We report our experience and the clinical utility of MMR IHC on pancreatic adenocarcinomas in fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimens.Materials and methodsWe performed a retrospective review to identify all patients diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma by FNA at our institution between December 2017 and September 2019. For cases with sufficient tumor cells for testing, the MMR results and morphology were summarized, as well as corresponding clinical information, including age, clinical stage, treatment, and concurrent other cancers.ResultsFrom December 2017 to September 2019, there were a total of 184 pancreatic FNAs with a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Of these 184 FNAs, 65 (35%) contained sufficient material in the cell block to perform IHC for MMR. The cell block material was collected in either RPMI or CytoLyt. Poor technical quality precluded interpretation of PMS2 in 4 cases and MSH6 in 2 cases. All other cases showed intact expression of all four proteins.ConclusionsIHC for MMR proteins can be done on specimens collected in RPMI or CytoLyt, but RPMI appears to be more reliable. None of the pancreatic adenocarcinomas in this study showed loss of MMR protein expression. Routine testing of MMR loss may not be indicated in pancreatic adenocarcinomas in the general patient population. 相似文献

The etiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is thought to involve dysfunction of the programmed cell death 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) pathway; PD-1 negatively regulates autoimmunity by interacting with its ligand, PD-L1. We therefore investigated PD-1/PD-L1 expression in synovial tissue of patients with RA. We immunohistochemically stained synovial specimens from 51 patients with RA and assessed the association between PD-1/PD-L1 expression and rheumatoid factor (RF), the total count of infiltrating T cells, C-reactive protein (CRP), and Krenn’s synovitis score. PD-1 expression on infiltrating lymphocytes was detected in 34/51 RA cases (66.7%), while PD-1 expression was very mildly correlated only with the number of total infiltrating T cells (R2?=?0.1011, P?=?0.0230). On the other hand, PD-L1 expression on synovial lining cells was observed in 37/51 RA cases (72.5%). Furthermore, a higher PD-L1 expression was significantly associated with RF positive state (P?=?0.0454), and the correlations between PD-L1 expression and the number of infiltrating T cells (R2?=?0.5571, P?<?0.0001), CRP (R2?=?0.4060, P?<?0.0001), and Krenn’s synovitis score (R2?=?0.7785, P?<?0.0001) were confirmed. PD-1 was expressed on infiltrating lymphocytes, while PD-L1 was expressed on synovial lining cells; the expression of PD-L1 on synovial lining cells was significantly correlated with the active state of the disease. These data suggest that PD-1/PD-L1 pathway may have an important role in the pathogenesis of RA. 相似文献

Programmed death 1 (PD-1) is a lymphoid receptor that negatively regulates immune responses. PD-1 expression was recently reported in some T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) subtypes, but the expression profile of PD-1 and its ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2) in B-NHLs remains largely to be characterized. To investigate this issue, monoclonal antibodies against PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2 were generated by immunization of balb-c mice. A series of 161 lymphoma tissue and 11 blood samples was analyzed using either immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry. In reactive lymph nodes, PD-1 was mainly expressed in follicular T cells. In B-NHLs, PD-1 was mainly expressed in reactive T cells; but expression was also noted in neoplastic B cells from small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL, 12/13), grade III follicular lymphoma (3/3), and diffuse large cell lymphoma (2/25). In contrast, neoplastic B cells from mantle cell lymphoma (0/11), marginal zone lymphoma (0/12), Burkitt lymphoma (0/3), and grade 1 to 2 follicular lymphoma (0/40) were PD-1 negative. PD-L1 and PD-L2 were negative in small B-cell lymphomas, including B-SLL. Flow cytometry showed that blood cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) also displayed PD-1 expression, which could be increased by CD40 stimulation. PD-1 expression in T-NHLs was restricted to the angioimmunoblastic subtype (8/8). These results show that PD-1 expression among B-NHLs is mainly associated with SLL/CLL and is influenced by activation of the CD40/CD40L pathway. Because the anti-PD-1.6.4 antibody works on paraffin sections, it represents a useful tool to differentiate SLL/CLL from other small B-cell lymphomas. 相似文献

BackgroundImmunotherapy is increasingly used for treatment of metastatic melanoma and carcinomas. PD-1 (programmed death 1) and its associated ligand (PD-L1) inhibits the activation of T-lymphocytes. This inhibition can be impacted by a number of drugs. Response to these drugs is predicted by assessment of PD-L1 expression. PD-L1 expression varies between 19% and 92% in melanomas and carcinomas. PD-L1 expression is less well documented for sarcomas.DesignFifty-six sarcomas of various histopathologic types were immunohistochemically stained (IHC) for PD-L1 using the antibody clone SP263 (Ventana, Tuscan, AZ). Membrane staining of tumor cells was quantitated as a percentage of total tumor cells. Sarcomas were judged as non-expressors (less than 1%) low-expressors (1 to 50%) and high expressors (greater than 50%). The percentage of each type of sarcoma judged as an expressor was determined.ResultsTable 1 documents the percentage of each type of sarcoma expressing PD-L1. 14% of sarcomas expressed PD-L1. Percentage of sarcomas expressing PD-L1 varied significantly between types but the majority of sarcomas were non-expressors.ConclusionPD-L1 IHC expression is valuable in predicting response to immune-modulating drugs. Such therapies may be useful for treatment of metastatic sarcomas. Expression of PD-L1 in carcinomas and melanomas is variable ranging from 19% to 92%. In our study, a minority (14%) of sarcomas expressed PD-L1. Other studies have shown similar results with between 1.4 and 59% (average 24%) of sarcomas expressing PD-L1. Expression appears to be sarcoma type specific. These finding suggest that PD-L1 based therapy may be less useful in sarcomas than in other malignancies. 相似文献

目的:观察干燥综合征(Sjogren's syndrome,SS)患者唇腺活检组织中程序性死亡分子-1(programmed death-1,PD-1)、程序性死亡配体-1(programmed death ligand-1,PD-L1)、程序性死亡配体-2(programmed death ligand-2,PD-L2)的表达,以及其与临床病理特征的相关性.方法:对所有患者和正常对照组的唇腺活检标本进行HE染色观察淋巴细胞浸润程度,免疫组织化学观察PD-1,PD-L1和PD-L2的表达.结果:SS患者唇腺活检组织中PD-1,PD-L1和PD-L2的表达较正常对照组明显增强.SS患者唇腺活检标本淋巴细胞的浸润程度与PD-1和PD-L2的表达强度无明显相关性,与PD-L1的表达强度呈正相关.SS患者疾病活动度评分与PD-1,PD-L1及PD-L2的表达强度均无明显相关性.SS患者疾病损害评分与PD-1的表达强度无明显相关性,与PD-L1和PD-L2的表达强度呈负相关.结论:PD-1,PD-L1及PD-L2在SS患者唇腺活检组织中的表达明显增强,PD-1/PD-L信号通路可能在SS的免疫病理损害中起重要作用. 相似文献
