Popis: | Human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA I) molecules composed of alpha (heavy) chain, including HLA-A, -B, or -C encoded by HLA genes, and beta-2-microglobulin (β2M) are membrane proteins on all nucleated cells that display peptide antigens for recognition by CD8-positive cytotoxic T cells. Here, we examined the clinicopathologic signification of HLA I expression in patients with gastric cancer (GC). Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect HLA A/B/C, β2M, CD8, p53, and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in the center and invasive margin of the tumor in 395 stage II and III GCs using tissue array method. Additionally, Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection and microsatellite instability (MSI) status were investigated. Negative expression of HLA A/B/C and β2M was observed in 258 (65.3%) and 235 (59.5%) of 395 stage II and III GCs, respectively. Negative HLA I expression was significantly associated with aggressive clinicopathologic features. Furthermore, negative expression of HLA A/B/C and β2M was inversely correlated with CD8-positive cytotoxic T cell infiltration, EBV-positivity, and PD-L1 expression (all p |
