Low TIM3 expression indicates poor prognosis of metastatic prostate cancer and acts as an independent predictor of castration resistant status
Abstract T cell immunoglobulin 3 (TIM3) is a cell surface star molecule expressed on T cells, and also marks dysfunctional CD8+ T cells in various kinds of cancers. However, there are few studies focusing on the expression of TIM3 in tumor cells. In our study, we recruited 139 patients with metastat...

However, there are few studies focusing on the expression of TIM3 in tumor cells. In our study, we recruited 139 patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) who received transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) consecutively to examine whether TIM3 expression level is associated with overall survival (OS) in mPCa patients. Immunohistochemistry was performed to determine TIM3 expression in prostate cancer tissues and then patients were divided into two groups. In multivariate Cox analysis, we revealed that mPCa patients with negative TIM3 expression, younger age, no radiotherapy, higher Gleason score, higher cT stage and patients of mCRPC had a shorter OS. Therefore, a predictive nomogram was generated with identified independent prognostic factors to assess patients’ OS at 3 years. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that higher cT stage, higher Gleason score and low TIM3 expression were independent predictors of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). In conclusion, low expression level of TIM3 in prostate cancer tissues is an independent prognostic factor of poor prognosis for mPCa patients, and also an independent predictor of mCRPC.Junlong WuGuowen LinYao ZhuHailiang ZhangGuohai ShiYijun ShenYiping ZhuBo DaiDingwei YeNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 7, Iss 1, Pp 1-9 (2017) |
