Correlation between B7-H4 expression and tumor-infiltrating FOXP3+Tregs and lymphonode metastasis of human breast cancer
Objective:To investigate the expression of B7 homolog 4(B7-H4) in human breast cancer and to analyze its relationship with number of tumor-infiltrating FOXP3+ Tregs and cancer lymphonode metastasis. Methods:B7-H4 expression was detected by im-munohistochemistry in 16 cases of normal breast tissues and 79 cases of breast cancer. Number of tumor-infiltrating CD3+ T cells and FOXP3+ Tregs was determined by indirect immunofluorescent double-staining in 64 cases of invasive breast cancer. Correlation be-tween B7-H4 expression and number of tumor-infiltrating CD3+ T cells and FOXP3+ Tregs as well as lymphonode metastasis was analyzed. Results:B7-H4 expressed in 6.3% normal breast tissues,40.0% ductal cancer in situ and 78.1% invasive breast cancer. B7-H4 expression in invasive breast cancer was significantly higher than that in normal breast tissues and ductal cancer in situ(P=0.000,P=0.009) without significantly difference between normal breast tissues and ductal cancer in situ(P=0.037). Intensity of B7-H4 was positively correlated with number of infiltrating FOXP3+ Tregs(rs=0.368,P=0.003) but was negatively correlated with number of infiltrating CD3+ T cells(rs=-0.316,P=0.011) and had no relationship with lymphonode metastasis of breast cancer(P >0.05). Conclu-sions:B7-H4 overly expresses in breast cancer. B7-H4 is in association with the local antitumor immune inhibition not lymphonode metastasis of tumors.
