这些结果提示,考虑 TIL 模式与 TLS 并识别 PD-L1 的表达及基底样型,有助于估计 B7-H4 的表达。

中文摘要

B7 同源蛋白 4(B7-H4)和吲哚胺 2,3-双加氧酶(IDO1)参与抑制抗肿瘤活性,也是免疫检查点治疗的新靶点。本研究旨在同时考察三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)中 B7-H4、IDO1 和程序性死亡配体 1(PD-L1)的相互关系,并分析肿瘤免疫微环境(TIME)及 TNBC 亚型。

对 119 例 TNBC 的全切片进行 PD-L1、B7-H4 和 IDO1 免疫染色。TIME 评估指标包括间质TIL(肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞)(sTIL,%)、TIL 模式分类、肿瘤-间质比(TSR)及三级淋巴结构(TLS)。同时通过免疫组化分析细胞角蛋白 5/6 和雄激素受体(AR)表达,以确定 TNBC 亚型。

PD-L1(28-8 克隆)综合阳性评分截断值为 5 的病例(p = 0.021)、TIL 炎性模式病例(p = 0.007)及 TLS 4 级病例(p = 0.006)中,B7-H4 表达显著较高。CK5/6 ≥10 的病例 B7-H4 表达较高(p = 0.035)。AR 与 B7-H4 的 H-score 呈负相关(相关系数 = −0.509,p < 0.001)。在 AR <10 的病例中,B7-H4 与 IDO1 表达水平呈负相关(相关系数 = −0.354,p < 0.001)。

结果提示,结合 TIL 模式和 TLS,并检测 PD-L1 表达及基底样亚型,有助于估计 B7-H4 表达。此外,管腔型雄激素受体(LAR)亚型常缺乏 B7-H4 表达;在非 LAR 亚型中,B7-H4 和 IDO1 表达呈互斥关系。

B7 homolog 4 (B7-H4) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1) are factors involved in the inhibition of antitumor activity and are new therapeutic targets for immune checkpoint therapy. Our study aimed to simultaneously investigate the interrelationship among B7-H4, IDO1 and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), including tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and TNBC subtypes.

Immunostaining for PD-L1, B7-H4, and IDO1 was performed on whole-slide sections of 119 cases of TNBC. The TIME was evaluated based on stromal tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs; %), pattern classification of TILs, tumor-stroma ratio (TSR), and tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS). TNBC subtypes were also determined by immunohistochemistry analysis of cytokeratin 5/6 and androgen receptor (AR) expression.

B7-H4 expression was significantly higher in cases with a combined positive score cutoff of 5 for PD-L1 (clone 28-8; p = 0.021), inflamed TIL pattern (p = 0.007), and TLS 4 (p = 0.006). B7-H4 expression was higher in case of CK5/6 10 (p = 0.035). The H-scores of AR and B7-H4 were inversely correlated ( = - 0.509, p < 0.001). B7-H4 and IDO1 expression levels were inversely correlated in cases with AR < 10 ( = - 0.354, p < 0.001).

These results suggest that considering the TIL pattern and TLS and identifying the expression of PD-L1 and the basal-like type are useful for estimating B7-H4 expression. In addition, luminal androgen receptor (LAR)-type is frequently deficient in B7-H4 expression. In non-LAR types, B7-H4 and IDO1 expression are exclusive.
