Abstract

Pheochromocytomas (PHEOs) are relatively rare catecholamine-producing tumors derived from adrenal medulla. Tumor microenvironment (TME) including neoangiogenesis has been explored in many human neoplasms but not necessarily in PHEOs. Therefore, in this study, we examined tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (CD4 and CD8), tumor associated macrophages (CD68 and CD163), sustentacular cells (S100p), and angiogenic markers (CD31 and areas of intratumoral hemorrhage) in 39 cases of PHEOs in the quantitative fashion. We then compared the results with pheochromocytoma of the adrenal gland scaled score (PASS), grading system for pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (GAPP) and the status of intra-tumoral catecholamine-synthesizing enzymes (TH, DDC, and PNMT) as well as their clinicopathological factors. Intratumoral CD8 (p = 0.0256), CD31 (p = 0.0400), and PNMT (p = 0.0498) status was significantly higher in PHEOs with PASS <4 than PASS ≧4. In addition, intratumoral CD8 lymphocytes were also significantly more abundant in well-than moderately differentiated PHEO according to GAPP score (p = 0.0108) and inversely correlated with tumor size (p = 0.0257). Intratumoral CD68 cells were significantly higher in PHEOs with regular or normal histological patterns than those not (p = 0.0370) and inversely correlated with tumor size (p = 0.0457). The status of CD163 was significantly positively correlated with that of CD8 positive cells (p = 0.0032). The proportion of intratumoral hemorrhage areas was significantly higher in PHEOs with PASS ≧4 (p = 0.0172). DDC immunoreactivity in tumor cells was significantly positively correlated with PASS score (p = 0.0356) and TH status was significantly higher in PHEOs harboring normal histological patterns (p = 0.0236) and cellular monotony (p = 0.0219) than those not. Results of our present study did demonstrate that abundant CD8 and CD68 cells could represent a histologically low-scored tumor. In particular, PHEOs with increased intratumoral hemorrhage should be considered rather malignant. In addition, abnormal catecholamine-producing status of tumor cells such as deficient PNMT and TH and increased DDC could also represent more aggressive PHEOs.

摘要

嗜铬细胞瘤(PHEO)是一种源自肾上腺髓质的相对罕见的儿茶酚胺产生肿瘤。肿瘤微环境(TME)包括新生血管形成已在许多人类肿瘤中得到探讨,但不一定在 PHEO 中得到探讨。因此,在这项研究中,我们以定量方式检查了 39 例 PHEO 中的肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞(CD4 和 CD8)、肿瘤相关巨噬细胞(CD68 和 CD163)、支持细胞(S100p)和血管生成标记物(CD31 和肿瘤内出血区域)。然后,我们将结果与嗜铬细胞瘤的肾上腺评分(PASS)、嗜铬细胞瘤和副神经节瘤的分级系统(GAPP)以及肿瘤内儿茶酚胺合成酶(TH、DDC 和 PNMT)的状态及其临床病理因素进行了比较。在 PASS<4 的 PHEO 中,肿瘤内 CD8(p=0.0256)、CD31(p=0.0400)和 PNMT(p=0.0498)状态明显高于 PASS≧4。此外,根据 GAPP 评分,肿瘤内 CD8 淋巴细胞在分化良好的 PHEO 中也明显更丰富(p=0.0108),并与肿瘤大小呈负相关(p=0.0257)。在具有规则或正常组织学模式的 PHEO 中,肿瘤内 CD68 细胞明显高于无此模式的 PHEO(p=0.0370),并与肿瘤大小呈负相关(p=0.0457)。CD163 状态与 CD8 阳性细胞的状态呈显著正相关(p=0.0032)。在 PASS≧4 的 PHEO 中,肿瘤内出血区域的比例明显较高(p=0.0172)。肿瘤细胞中 DDC 免疫反应性与 PASS 评分呈显著正相关(p=0.0356),而在具有正常组织学模式(p=0.0236)和细胞单调性(p=0.0219)的 PHEO 中,TH 状态明显更高。我们的研究结果表明,丰富的 CD8 和 CD68 细胞可能代表组织学评分较低的肿瘤。特别是,肿瘤内出血增加的 PHEO 应被视为更恶性的肿瘤。此外,肿瘤细胞中儿茶酚胺产生状态异常,如缺乏 PNMT 和 TH 以及 DDC 增加,也可能代表更具侵袭性的 PHEO。
