Introduction:
This study aimed to analyse the relationship between clinicopathological factors in cervical intraepithelial lesions and abnormal colposcopic findings.
Material And Methods:
Thirty high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) and thirty low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) patients who underwent biopsy due to abnormal colposcopic findings were included in the study. The immunoreactivity of CD3, CD4, CD5, CD8, and PD-1 was analysed immunohistochemically in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and stromal lymphocytes.
Results:
In TILs, CD3, CD4, CD5, CD8, and PD-1 were highly stained in 20/30 (66.6%), 16/30 (53.3%), 15/30 (50.0%), 24/30 (80.0%), and 13/30 (43.3%) of the cases for the HSIL group, while 7/30 (23.3%), 4/30 (13.3%), 5/30 (16.6%), 9/30 (30.0%), and 5/30 (16.6%) were in the LSIL group, respectively. CD3, CD4, CD5, CD8, and PD-1 immunostainings for TILs were higher in the HSIL group (p=0.001, p=0.001, p=0.006, p˂0.001, p=0.024, respectively). Only PD-1 was significantly higher in lymphocytes in the stroma (p=0.001).
Conclusions:
CD3, CD4, and CD8 also show a positive correlation with the Ki-67 proliferation index. CD3, CD4, CD5, and CD8 may contribute to PD-1-mediated tumour control. Immunohistochemical staining plays a key role in evaluating the tumour microenvironment.
