Vascular space invasion and inflammatory stromal reaction as prognostic factors in patients with surgically treated cervical cancer stage IB to IIB.

Abstract:

:We assessed the prognostic value of the local tumor characteristics inflammatory stromal reaction (ISR) and vascular space invasion (VSI) together with established prognostic criteria, in cervical cancer patients. One hundred and forty-two patients with carcinoma of the cervix stage IB to IIB undergoing radical hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy between October 1980 and September 1990 were included in the study. Pelvic lymph node involvement, stage, parametrial involvement, age and histological tumor type were analysed together with VSI and ISR as prognostic factors. The most important prognostic parameters for recurrence-free interval and overall survival in the univariate analysis were pelvic lymph node involvement (P-value < 0.0001/0.0001) and stage (P-value < 0.0001/0.0005). ISR and VSI showed a significant prognostic value for recurrence-free interval (both P-values = 0.0014) and overall survival (ISR: P-value < 0.0001; VSI: P-value = 0.0018). In the multivariate analysis ISR showed an independent prognostic value for overall survival (P-value = 0.03, Relative Risk = 5.4, 95%-confidence interval 1.2-24.5). ISR, reflecting the biological behavior of the tumor, should be considered in the evaluation of prognosis in surgically treated squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix.

  • 2B4(CD244)-mediated activation of NK cells reduces metastases of B16F10 melanoma in mice.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Natural killer (NK) cells are a third population of lymphocytes that can kill certain tumor cells. This killing is regulated by signals received through activating and inhibitory receptors. 2B4 (CD244), a member of the CD2 subset of Immunoglobulin superfamily, was identified as an activating receptor on NK c...
