摘要

Background: Considering the effect of smoking on tumor immunity, we attempted to investigate the impact of smoking history on the prognostic value of circulating naïve and memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with chemotherapy. Methods: Of 196 histologically confirmed advanced NSCLC, 98 eligible ones were enrolled. Naïve and memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from peripheral blood were measured by flow cytometry. Kaplan-Meier curves helped estimate patients' sur...更多

Background: Considering the effect of smoking on tumor immunity, we attempted to investigate the impact of smoking history on the prognostic value of circulating naïve and memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with chemotherapy. Methods: Of 196 histologically confirmed advanced NSCLC, 98 eligible ones were enrolled. Naïve and memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from peripheral blood were measured by flow cytometry. Kaplan-Meier curves helped estimate patients' survival. The uni- and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model was employed in the assessment of the prognostic value of factors. Results: Multivariate survival analyses showed that peripheral naïve CD4+ T cells independently predicted favorable overall survival in ever smokers with advanced NSCLC , but unfavorable OS in never smokers with the same ailment . Ever smokers presented a different distribution of naïve and memory T cells: low expression levels of naïve CD4+ T , naïve CD8+ T , CD4+ naïve/memory ratio , and CD8+ naïve/memory ratio , and high distributions of memory CD4 + T , memory CD8 + T , and naïve CD8/CD4 ratio , when compared to never smokers. Conclusions: We revealed the impact of cigarette-smoking on peripheral naïve CD4+ T cells' prognostic value in advanced NSCLC patients. These results could help in refining personalized treatment for advanced NSCLC patients.收起
