Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Has a Low Frequency of dMMR and High Frequencies of DNA Mismatch Repair Protein High Expression Associated with Lower T-Cell Infiltration
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Background: DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency (dMMR), which leads to genomic and microsatellite instability, is a biomarker that predicts response to immunotherapies and has variable prognostic effects for chemotherapies in solid tumors. The dMMR can be detected using gene sequencing or immunohistochemistry for four essential MMR proteins: MSH6, MSH2, MLH1, and PMS2. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common aggressive lymphoma. Previous studies have suggested the role of MMR gene variants in DLBCL lymphomagenesis, yet the prognostic role of dMMR in DLBCL has not been well studied. Methods: We performed targeted next-generation sequencing and immunohistochemistry for MSH6, MSH2, MLH1, and PMS2 in a large cohort of DLBCL patients treated with standard chemoimmunotherapy. Gene expression profiling (GEP) was performed using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome HG-U133 Plus 2.0 microarray (data in GSE31312). Fluorescent multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) was performed using MultiOmyx multiplexing immunofluorescence staining protocols and antibodies against 13 immune markers. We investigated the frequencies of dMRR and MMR protein expression and correlated the mutation status and expression levels with patient survival and DLBCL biology, including the number of mutated genes, GEP data, previously analyzed DLBCL biomarkers, and immune cell immunophenotypes. Results: MMR gene mutations and loss of MMR protein expression were infrequent in DLBCL (Figure A) and did not show a significant prognostic impact. MMR proteins were commonly expressed in DLBCL samples and the germinal centers of reactive tonsil controls (Figure B), with higher mean and median percentages of tumor cells expressing MSH6 and MLH1 proteins than in the solid tumor samples used for comparison. High expression of MMR proteins was associated with Ki-67, MYC, and p53 overexpression as determined by immunohistochemistry. GEP analysis identified significantly upregulated genes involved in the mitotic cell cycle and DNA metabolism and prominent downregulated immune gene signatures in DLBCL with high MMR protein expression. Fluorescent mIHC confirmed the associations with decreased T cell abundance in MSH6/MSH2/MLH1/PMS2 highly expressing DLBCL (Figure C) independent of p53 and MYC expression status, whereas MSH6/ MLH1 mutations were associated with increased T cell frequencies. High versus low expression of MSH6, MLH1, and PMS2 showed significant unfavorable prognostic effects in DLBCL when the optimal cutoffs were used for high expression. However, when the median percentages were used as cutoffs, the prognostic effects were not significant; nonetheless, MSH6 and PMS2 high expression showed significant adverse prognostic effects in the MYC¯ DLBCL subset. Interestingly, when we used Ki-67, MYC + or BCL2 + percentages in DLBCL assessed by immunohistochemistry to subtract MMR protein percentages and then correlated the differences to survival, we found significant favorable prognostic impact by higher percentage expression differences between MMR proteins and BCL2, or by intermediately higher differences between MMR proteins and MYC. For MSH2/MLH1/PMS2, the higher percentages compared with MYC/BCL2 showed no significant correlations with T cell infiltration levels, whereas the higher differences between MSH6 and MYC/BCL2 were associated with significantly lower T cell frequencies (Figure D). Conclusions: This study revealed that high expression of MMR proteins is a common feature of DLBCL associated with lower tumor-infiltrating T cells, MYC and p53 overexpression, and context-dependent prognostic effects. In contrast, dMMR and loss of MMR proteins are infrequent and have no significant prognostic effects in DLBCL treated with standard chemoimmunotherapy. These results may have implications for understanding DLBCL biology and the low efficacy of PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in DLBCL.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
