CD20+ Tumor Infiltrating B Lymphocyte in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Correlation with Clinicopathologic Characteristics and Heat Shock Protein 70 Expression

Abstract: Objective B lymphocyte infiltration in the tumor microenvironment has been proposed to play pivotal roles in tumor progression. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) expressed by tumor cells can induce antitumor immune response. Few studies have examined the clinicopathologic relationship between tumor infiltrating B lymphocyte and HSP70 expression in human cancer. So far, there is no complete knowledge on the relationship in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The present study was conducted to evaluate the relation… Show more

“…Potential clinical roles of several HSPs in oral cancers have been reported. For example: HSPA4 is considered as a prognostic indicator in OSCC 11 . HSP90AA1 and HSPB1 are prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in OSCC 12,13 .…”

“…Most studies were focused on the association of HSP70 and HSP27 with oral cancer. Of 26 eligible studies, there were 13 studies were on HSP70 protein expression and oral cancer [ 21 27 , 33 , 34 , 37 , 41 – 43 ] (315 patients), 9 on HSP27 [ 12 , 23 , 28 , 29 , 35 , 36 , 38 40 ] (111 patients), 4 on HSP90 [ 23 , 25 , 32 , 44 ] (90 patients), 3 on HSP60 [ 23 , 30 , 31 ] (60 patients), and 2 on HSP105 [ 12 , 45 ] (126 patients). Two published studies were conducted for the prognosis value of HSP70 [ 24 , 43 ] and 3 for HSP27 [ 35 , 39 , 40 ] protein expression in oral cancer.…”

“…For example, study of Zheng et al [ 37 ] demonstrated patients with HSP70 overexpression had a more advanced stage of oral cancer, but Taghavi’ study found HSP70 overexpression was a protective factor for advanced stage. [ 34 ] At the same time, opposite results were also detected for the differentiation or oral cancer, [ 33 , 34 ] in which the 2 studies were all performed in OSCC patients. So we might confirm that HSP70 had a closely association with risk or prognosis of oral cancer, but the published studies could not provide definite results because of fewer studies and opposite results.…”

“…B cells consistently represent a substantial cellular component in tumor microenvironment, who exert their functions through antibody production, antigen presentation, and immune regulation. 8,9 Some investigations have indicated that tumorinfiltrating B cells were associated with favorable prognosis in human solid tumors, such as breast cancer, 10 oral cancer, 11 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 12,13 ovarian cancer, 14 and melanoma. 15 The underlying mechanisms include inducing tumor cell apoptosis through antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity and serving as an antigen presenting cells to activate effector cells.…”
