摘要
目的研究乳腺癌间质T细胞亚群与患者5 a生存率及临床病理特征的关系。方法采用免疫组化方法检测80例乳腺浸润性导管癌间质中CD4+、CD8+T细胞和Foxp3+调节性T细胞(Foxp3+Treg)的表达。结果乳腺癌间质中T细胞亚群的表达与患者5 a生存率无相关性(P>0.05);乳腺癌间质中Foxp3+Treg的浸润与pTNM分期、组织学分级、淋巴结转移呈正相关(P<0.05),与年龄、肿瘤大小无显著性差异(P>0.05);乳腺癌间质中CD4+和CD8+T细胞的浸润与pTNM分期、组织学分级、淋巴结转移呈负相关(P<0.05),与年龄、肿瘤大小无显著性差异(P>0.05)。结论乳腺癌间质Foxp3+T细胞可抑制CD4+和CD8+T细胞的表达,打破肿瘤间质免疫平衡状态,对癌细胞免疫逃逸和肿瘤的侵袭、转移有积极作用。
Objective To analyze the relationship between tumor infiltrating T cell subsets with the 5- year-survival rate and clinicopathologieal features of the patients with breast cancer. Methods The expression of CD4 +, CD8 + T cells and Foxp3 + regulatory T cells (Foxp3 + Treg) were detected by immunohistochemistry in 80 cases of breast carcinoma. Results There were no correlation between the expression of tumor infiltrating T cell subsets and the 5-year-survival rate of the patients with breast cancer(P 〉 0.05 ). Tumor infiltrating Foxp3 + Tregs in the breast cancer mesenchyma was positively correlated to lymph node metastasis, histological grading, pTNM staging (P 〈 0.05 ) , and had no correlation with age and the diameter of tumor. Tumor infiltrating CD4 + T and CD8 + T cells were negatively correlated to lymph node metastasis, histological grading, pTNM staging(P 〈 0.05) , and had no correlation with age and the diameter of tumor. Conclusion Tumor infiltrating Foxp3 + Tregs in the breast cancer mesenchyma can inhibit the expression of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells, alter the immune equilibrium of breast cancer stromal, and contribute to tumor invasion.
