Popis: Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to analyze the expression patterns of immune cells in renal cancer patients, including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), regulatory T cells (Tregs), CD3 + /CD4 + T cells, CD3 + / CD8 + T cells, and CD3- CD16 + CD56 + cells. In addition, this study will explore the correlation between these immune markers and the progression of renal cell carcinoma and evaluate their potential application in predicting the therapeutic effect of renal cell carcinoma. Methods In this study, 80 renal cancer patients who received treatment in our hospital from October 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the research object and 50 healthy people who underwent a physical examination at the same time were selected as the control group. All participants had a 3 ml venous blood sample taken in the morning on an empty stomach. All patients with renal cell carcinoma have been confirmed by histopathological diagnosis. Clinicopathological data including age, gender, BMI, clinical stage, tumor size and pathological type were collected.MDSC, Treg, CD3 + /CD4 + T cells, CD3 + /CD8 + T cells, the ratio of CD3 + /CD4 + T cells/CD3 + /CD8 + T cell and the expression level of CD3-CD16 + CD56 + cells were detected by flow cytometry. Results Through the detection of flow cytometry, we observed that there was no significant difference in gender, age, BMI and other baseline characteristics between renal cancer patients and healthy controls, and the P value was greater than 0.05. However, in the analysis of peripheral blood immune cell subsets, including CD3 + /CD4 + , CD3 + /CD8 + , CD3 + /CD4 + /CD3 + /CD8 + ratio, NK cells, regulatory T cells (T-reg), polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSC) and mononuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (M-MDSC) were significantly different between renal cell carcinoma group and normal control group (P 0.05).At the same time, CD3 + /CD8 + T cells, the ratio of CD3 + /CD4 + /CD3 + /CD8 + and the expression level of NK cells were not significantly correlated with tumor size and clinical stage (P > 0.05). However, the expression levels of CD3 + /CD4 + cells, M-MDSC, PMN-MDSC, and T-reg cells were statistically significantly different with tumor size and clinical stage (P
