Abstract
Increased incidence of breast cancer has stimulated development of new diagnostic and therapeutic methods. The programmed cell death 1 (PD1) pathway and its inhibitors are promising avenues for investigation. PD1 includes PD ligands 1 (PDL1) and 2 (PDL2). We investigated the expression of PD1 and PDL1 in invasive breast carcinomas using immunohistochemical staining. We used 171 invasive breast carcinoma specimens from which tissue microarray blocks were created. Immunohistochemical staining of PD1 using NAT105, and PDL1 using CAL10 was performed on tissue microarray sections. NAT105 and CAL10 are useful clones for detecting expression of PD1 and PDL1. PD1 and PDL1 immunostaining was significantly stronger in carcinomas with basal-like phenotype compared to other molecular breast cancer types. PD1 and PDL1 expression also was associated with a high histologic grade and a high Ki-67 index. PD1 expression also was associated with lymphovascular invasion and axillary metastasis. PD1 and PDL1 expression is associated with aggressive tumor behavior and a basal-like phenotype in breast cancer. We suggest that inhibition of the PD1/PDL1 pathway, particularly in triple negative breast carcinomas with basal-like phenotype, might be useful for targeted immunotherapy.
期刊介绍:
Biotechnic & Histochemistry (formerly Stain technology) is the
official publication of the Biological Stain Commission. The journal has been in continuous publication since 1926.
Biotechnic & Histochemistry is an interdisciplinary journal that embraces all aspects of techniques for visualizing biological processes and entities in cells, tissues and organisms; papers that describe experimental work that employs such investigative methods are appropriate for publication as well.
Papers concerning topics as diverse as applications of histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, cytochemical probes, autoradiography, light and electron microscopy, tissue culture, in vivo and in vitro studies, image analysis, cytogenetics, automation or computerization of investigative procedures and other investigative approaches are appropriate for publication regardless of their length. Letters to the Editor and review articles concerning topics of special and current interest also are welcome.
