摘要

导言恶性胸膜间皮瘤（MPM）是一种侵袭性恶性肿瘤，预后不良。石棉激活的巨噬细胞可能有助于 MPM 的肿瘤发生和发展。本研究旨在阐明 M2 样肿瘤相关巨噬细胞（TAMs）在 MPM 中的生物学和临床意义。通过CD163染色免疫组化评估了M2样肿瘤相关巨噬细胞在瘤内和瘤周区域的分布。结果瘤内 M2 样 TAM 密度与治疗前 C 反应蛋白水平（r = 0.283，P = 0.004）和 Ki-67 增殖指数（r = 0.498，P <0.001）显著相关。瘤周 M2 样 TAM 密度也与治疗前 C 反应蛋白水平（r = 0.255，P = 0.010）和 Ki-67 增殖指数（r = 0.435，P <0.001）显著相关。此外，瘤内 M2 样 TAM 密度与组织学亚型相关（P <0.001），与上皮样肿瘤相比，肉瘤的密度更高。瘤内和瘤周 M2 样 TAM 高组的总生存率明显较低（分别为 P = 0.044 和 P = 0.046），尤其是晚期 MPM 患者。多变量分析发现，瘤周 M2 样 TAM 状态（危险比 = 1.700，95 % 置信区间：1.034-2.796，P = 0.037）、临床分期和组织学是影响总生存期的重要预后因素。

M2-like tumor-associated macrophages may promote tumor progression in malignant pleural mesothelioma

Introduction

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive malignancy with an unfavorable prognosis. Asbestos-activated macrophages may contribute to both oncogenesis and progression of MPM. This study aimed to clarify the biological and clinical significance of M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in MPM.

Methods

This retrospective study included 101 MPM patients who were diagnosed and started treatment between 1998 and 2010. The distribution of M2-like TAMs in the intratumoral and peritumoral regions was evaluated by immunohistochemistry using CD163 staining. Tumor proliferation was evaluated by Ki-67 staining.

Results

Intratumoral M2-like TAM density was significantly correlated with the pretreatment C-reactive protein level (r = 0.283, P = 0.004) and Ki-67 proliferation index (r = 0.498, P < 0.001). Peritumoral M2-like TAM density was also significantly correlated with the pretreatment C-reactive protein level (r = 0.255, P = 0.010) and Ki-67 proliferation index (r = 0.435, P < 0.001). Additionally, intratumoral M2-like TAM density was associated with histological subtype (P < 0.001), with higher densities observed in sarcomatoid tumors compared to epithelioid tumors. The overall survival rate was significantly worse in the intratumoral and peritumoral M2-like TAM-high groups (P = 0.044 and P = 0.046, respectively), particularly in patients with advanced-stage MPM. Multivariable analysis identified peritumoral M2-like TAM status (hazard ratio = 1.700, 95 % confidence interval: 1.034–2.796, P = 0.037), clinical stage, and histology as significant prognostic factors for overall survival.

Conclusions

During MPM progression, M2-like TAMs may induce tumor cell proliferation and aggressiveness, contributing to the poor prognosis in MPM patients.
