Immunoexpression pattern of TLR3 and TLR7 in minor salivary gland adenoid cystic carcinoma and its role in prognosis
Objectives
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the salivary glands has poor long-term prognosis and a high metastatic rate. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), first-line immune activators, have been associated with both tumor progression and suppression. We aimed to study TLR3 and TLR7 behavior in ACC.
Materials and methods
We studied TLR3 and TLR7 immunoexpression of 46 minor salivary gland ACCs diagnosed at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, Helsinki University Hospital, Helsinki, Finland over the period 1974–2012. The associations of TLR3 and TLR7 immunoexpression with clinicopathological factors were evaluated by χ2-test and Fisher's exact test.
Results
In the majority of samples, both TLR3 and TLR7 were immunoexpressed in cytoplasm. The immunoexpression was heterogeneous between individual tumors. Stronger TLR7 immunoexpression associated with recurrence rate and poorer disease-specific survival (DSS). TLR3 did not associate significantly with survival although we found an inverse correlation between TLR3 and TLR7 immunopositivity. Hence, when TLR3 immunoexpression was negative or mild, TLR7 immunoexpression was moderate to strong, and vice versa.
Conclusions
TLR3 and TLR7 are immunoexpressed in minor salivary gland ACC. TLR7 is potentially an independent prognostic marker for recurrence rate and DSS.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Treatment and Research Communications is an international peer-reviewed publication dedicated to providing comprehensive basic, translational, and clinical oncology research. The journal is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, policy, and treatment of cancer and provides a global forum for the nurturing and development of future generations of oncology scientists. Cancer Treatment and Research Communications publishes comprehensive reviews and original studies describing various aspects of basic through clinical research of all tumor types. The journal also accepts clinical studies in oncology, with an emphasis on prospective early phase clinical trials. Specific areas of interest include basic, translational, and clinical research and mechanistic approaches; cancer biology; molecular carcinogenesis; genetics and genomics; stem cell and developmental biology; immunology; molecular and cellular oncology; systems biology; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; cancer policy; and integration of various approaches. Our mission is to be the premier source of relevant information through promoting excellence in research and facilitating the timely translation of that science to health care and clinical practice.
