Abstract Tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) are usually the first station of tumor metastasis in lung cancer. TDLNs+ have distinct pathomorphologic and tumor microenvironment (TME)-compositional patterns, which still need to be thoroughly investigated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Here, we enrolled 312 LUAD patients with TDLNs+ from our institution between 2015 and 2019. 3DHISTECH was used to scan all of the TDLNs+. Based on morphologic features, TDLNs+ patterns were classified as polarized-type or scattered-type, and TME-compositional patterns were classified as colloid-type, necrosis-type, specific-type, and common-type. Multivariate analysis revealed an increased risk of early recurrence associated with scattered-type (HR 2.37, 95% CI: 1.06–5.28), colloid-type (HR 1.95, 95% CI: 1.03–3.67), and necrosis-type (HR 2.21, 95% CI: 1.13–4.89). NanoString transcriptional analysis revealed an immunosuppression and vascular invasion hallmark in scattered and necrosis patterns and an immunoactivated hallmark in polarized and common patterns. According to imaging mass cytometry (IMC), the scattered and necrosis patterns revealed that germinal centers (GC) were compromised, GCB cell and T cell proliferation were deficient, tumor cells had the potential for proliferation, and the immune attack may be weaker. In this study, we present evidence that LUAD patients have distinct patterns and immune hallmarks of TDLNs+ related to their prognosis. |
