Popis: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) immunity plays an important role in the proliferation and apoptosis of aberrant cells. Immune dysregulation has been studied in various prognostic subgroups. This study analyzed 60 patients with MDS via multidimensional flow cytometry to evaluate the expression of aberrant markers, such as CD7 and cytoplasmic CD3 on lymphocytes. The Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) scores were used to classify the patients into risk groups. The results showed a significant downregulation of CyCD3− T cells in low–intermediate versus high-risk patients (p = 0.013). This study is the first to show that a significant decrease in cyCD3− T cells in patients with a lower IPSS-R score may indicate microenvironmental changes conducive to transformation in MDS.
