Abstract
OBJECTIVES Tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) are among the most abundant inflammatory cells in tumor microenvironment (TME). Aldehyde dehydrogenase 3A1 (ALDH3A1) is significantly reduced in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), ALDH3A1 overexpression suppresses tumorigenesis by inhibiting inflammation. This study investigated the relationship and mechanisms underlying the crosstalk between ALDH3A1 and TANs in OSCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were performed to investigate the abundance of TANs and the expression of ALDH3A1. dHL-60 were induced with tumor-conditioned media and recombinant IL-6/IL-8. The expression of key proteins in PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway were detected by RT-PCR and western blot. A xenograft model was utilized to examine the effect of ALDH3A1 on tumorigenicity and polarization of TANs. RESULTS In patients with OSCC, TANs significantly increased and were associated with a worse prognosis. Additionally, ALDH3A1 negatively correlated with TANs infiltration and especially the N2 phenotype which was the prominent part in OSCC. Furthermore, our study demonstrated that tumor-derived IL-8 drives ALDH3A1-mediated TANs N2 polarization in the TME through PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that TANs can serve as a prognostic biomarker and ALDH3A1 could be a promising therapeutic target for regulating TANs N2 polarization in antitumor therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of inflammation-based indexes in predicting radiation pneumonitis (RP) and prognosis in lung tumor patients treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS The data of one hundred and seventy-two patients with 272 lung lesions from November 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Pretreatment hematological indexes including platelet count, neutrophil count, and lymphocyte count were collected before treatment. Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were calculated. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was established to predict the RP and overall survival of patients, and the Youden index was calculated to determine the cutoff values of SII, NLR, and PLR before radiotherapy. RESULTS Pretreatment SII, NLR, and PLR could predict RP in lung tumor patients treated with SBRT, the optimal cutoff values of SII, NLR, and PLR were 355.38, 2.04, and 141.09, respectively. Pretreatment PLR could predict survival and the optimal cutoff value of PLR was 166.83, patients with a PLR > 166.83 predict worse overall survival (OS) (P < 0.001). The 1-year and 2-year OS for patients with a PLR ≤ 166.83 were 96.3% and 82.4%, while for those with a PLR > 166.83 were 82.0% and 58.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION In lung tumor patients treated with SBRT, pretreatment SII, NLR, and PLR can effectively predict RP and a higher PLR predicts poor OS. These inflammation-based indexes could serve as reliable and convenient predictors to guide treatment for physicians in clinical practice.

Abstract
The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is a novel and integrated marker that has not been studied with prostate cancer. We aimed to ascertain the association between SII levels and prostate cancer. We utilized data from the 1999-2010 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the relationship between SII and prostate cancer. Additionally, subgroup analyses stratified by age, BMI, history of hypertension and diabetes were performed. A total of 8,020 participants were included in our analysis. After full adjustment, SII was associated with a 7% increased risk of prostate cancer (OR 1.07, 95% CI 0.99-1.15, p = 0.094). We further categorized SII values into three segments and found that individuals in the highest SII group had a 33% increased risk of prostate cancer than those in the tertile 1 group (OR 1.33; 95% CI 1.01-1.81; p = 0.044; P for trend = 0.046). In addition, a higher SII level was associated with a 137% increased risk of prostate cancer in the diabetes subgroup (OR 2.37; 95% CI 1.08-5.21; p = 0.031). The current study suggested that SII was positively associated with increased risks of prostate cancer. The SII might be an easily accessible indicator for identifying prostate cancer.

J Transl Med 2023; 21:79. [PMID: 36739407 PMCID: PMC9898902 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-03924-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 33.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is a novel biomarker to predict the prognosis of some malignant tumors based on neutrophil, platelet, and lymphocyte counts. Evidence is scarce about the prognostic value of SII for prostate cancer patients. This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to explore the prognostic value of the SII in prostate cancer. METHODS The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library (CENTRAL) databases were searched to determine eligible studies from inception to August 15, 2022. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted to pool the results. Statistical analyses were conducted by using Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS A total of 12 studies with 8083 patients were included. The quantitative synthesis showed that a high SII was related to poor overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.44, 95% CI 1.23-1.69, p < 0.001). Furthermore, a subgroup analysis showed that a high SII was associated with poor OS in the groups of any ethnicity, tumor type, and cutoff value. An increased SII was also associated with inferior progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 1.80, 95% CI 1.27-2.56, p = 0.001). In the subgroup analysis, a high SII value was related to poor PFS in Asian patients (HR = 4.03, 95% CI 1.07-15.17, p = 0.04) and a cutoff value > 580 (HR = 1.19, 95% CI 1.04-1.36, p = 0.01). CONCLUSION Based on the current evidence, a high pretreatment SII may be associated with poor OS and PFS. The SII may serve as an important prognostic indicator in patients with prostate cancer. More rigorously designed studies are needed to explore the SII and the prognosis of prostate cancer.

Front Oncol 2023; 12:1079622. [PMID: 36713540 PMCID: PMC9878388 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1079622] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the role of inflammatory factors including systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting Gleason Score (GS) and Gleason Score upgrading (GSU) in localized prostate cancer (PCa) after radical prostatectomy (RP). Methods The data of 297 patients who underwent prostate biopsy and RP in our center from January 2014 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative clinical characteristics including age, values of tPSA, total prostate volume (TPV), f/t PSA ratio, body mass index (BMI), biopsy GS and inflammatory factors including SII, NLR, lymphocyte to monocyte (LMR), neutrophil ratio (NR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte ratio (LR), mean platelet volume (MPV) and red cell distribution (RDW) as well as pathological T (pT) stage were collected and compared according to the grades of RP GS (GS ≤ 6 and GS≥7), respectively. ROC curve analysis was used to confirm the discriminative ability of inflammatory factors including SII, NLR and their combination with tPSA for predicting GS and GSU. By using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, the association between significant inflammatory markers and grades of GS were evaluated. Results Patients enrolled were divided into low (GS ≤ 6) and high (GS≥7) groups by the grades of GS. The median values of clinical factors were 66.08 ± 6.04 years for age, 36.62 ± 23.15 mL for TPV, 26.16 ± 33.59 ng/mL for tPSA and 0.15 ± 0.25 for f/t PSA ratio, 22.34 ± 3.14 kg/m2 for BMI, 15 (5.1%) were pT1, 116 (39.1%) were pT2 and 166 (55.9%) were pT3. According to the student's t test, patients in high GS group had a greater proportion of patients with pT3 (P<0.001), and higher NLR (P=0.04), SII (P=0.037) and tPSA (P=0.015) compared with low GS group, the distribution of age, TPV, f/t PSA ratio, BMI, LMR, NR, PLR, LR, MPV and RDW did not show any significantly statistical differences. The AUC for SII, NLR and tPSA was 0.732 (P=0.007), 0.649 (P=0.045) and 0.711 (P=0.015), with threshold values of 51l.08, 2.3 and 10.31ng/mL, respectively. According to the multivariable logistic regression models, NLR ≥ 2.3 (OR, 2.463; 95% CI, 0.679-10.469, P=0.042), SII ≥ 511.08 (OR, 3.519; 95% CI 0.891-12.488; P=0.003) and tPSA ≥ 10.31 ng/mL (OR, 4.146; 95% CI, 1.12-15.35; P=0.033) were all independent risk factors associated with higher GS. The AUC for combination of SII, NLR with tPSA was 0.758 (P=0.003) and 0.756 (P=0.003), respectively. GSU was observed in a total of 48 patients with GS ≤ 6 (55.17%). Then patients were divided into 2 groups (high and low) according to the threshold value of SII, NLR, tPSA, SII+tPSA and NLR+tPSA, respectively, when the GSU rates were compared with regard to these factors, GSU rate in high level group was significantly higher than that in low level group, P=0.001, 0.044, 0.017, <0.001 and <0.001, respectively. Conclusion High SII, NLR and tPSA were associated with higher GS and higher GSU rate. SII was likely to be a more favorable biomarker for it had the largest AUC area compared with tPSA and NLR; the combination of SII or NLR with tPSA had greater values for predicting GS and GSU compared with NLR, SII or tPSA alone, since the AUC area of combination was much higher. SII, NLR were all useful inflammatory biomarkers for predicting GS and detecting GSU among localized PCa patients with biopsy GS ≤ 6.

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio predicts nodal involvement in unfavourable, clinically nonmetastatic prostate cancer patients and overall survival in pN1 patients. Sci Rep 2023; 13:392. [PMID: 36624246 PMCID: PMC9829873 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-27542-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of our study was to determine the clinical utility of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting presence and prognosis of nodal involvement in patients treated with radical prostatectomy (RP) due to prostate cancer. This single-centre retrospective study included 205 patients treated with RP and lymphadenectomy between 2012 and 2018. Logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses were performed to evaluate the prognostic value of preoperative NLR in terms of nodal spread and survival. Patients staged pN1 presented lower mean NLR (2.53 vs 3.86; p = 0.0025) compared to pN0 patients. On multivariable analysis of different haematological markers, only NLR exceeding the median (≥ 2.7) predicted pN1 (OR = 0.38; p = 0.0367) independently of biopsy grading and PSA. In internal validation (n = 31 pN1, n = 174 pN0) on the bootstrapped dataset using a spare cutoff of NLR ≥ 4.1 would allow sparing lymphadenectomy in 22.09% pN0 patients, missing 6.45% pN1 (NPV 92.66%; 95% CI 84.91-100%). Noticeably, in pN1 patients NLR ≥ 2.7 correlated with shorter overall survival (p = 0.0196), despite its association with reduced risk of pN1. High pre-prostatectomy NLR was negatively associated with pN1, yielding high NPV in internal validation. Simultaneously, high NLR in pN1 patients was associated with shorter survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The SII (systemic immune-inflammation index) has been extensively reported to have a prognostic value in prostate cancer (PCa), despite the unconformable results. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to quantify the effect of pretreatment SII on survival outcomes in patients with PCa. METHODS The following databases were searched: Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). For exploration of the SII's correlations with the overall survival (OS) and the progression-free survival/biochemical recurrence-free survival (PFS/bRFS) in PCa, the pooled hazard ratios (HRs) were assessed within 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS The present meta-analysis covered 10 studies with 8133 patients. Among the PCa population, a high SII was linked significantly to poor OS (HR = 2.63, 95% CI = 1.87-3.70, p < 0.001), and worse PFS/bRFS (HR = 2.49, 95% CI = 1.30-4.77, p = 0.006). However, a high SII was not linked significantly to T stage (OR = 1.69, 95% CI = 0.86-3.33, p = 0.128), the metastasis to lymph node (OR = 1.69, 95% CI = 0.69-4.16, p = 0.251), age (OR = 1.41, 95% CI = 0.88-2.23, p = 0.150), or the Gleason score (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 0.88-1.96, p = 0.178). CONCLUSIONS For the PCa sufferers, the SII might be a promising prognostic biomarker, which is applicable to the high-risk subgroup identification, and provide personalized therapeutic strategies.

Clinical Predictors of Grade Group Upgrading for Radical Prostatectomy Specimens Compared to Those of Preoperative Needle Biopsy Specimens. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12112760. [PMID: 36428820 PMCID: PMC9689294 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12112760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Decision-making and selection of treatment modalities for newly diagnosed prostate cancer (PCa) are often determined by risk stratification using grade group (GG), prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and clinical stage. The discrepancies between needle biopsy (NB) and radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens often occur because of the sampling errors in NB or multifocal features of PCa. Thus, we aimed to estimate the preoperative clinical factors for predicting GG upgrading after robot-assisted RP (RARP). METHODS In this retrospective study, we reviewed the clinical and pathological records of patients who underwent RARP at Gifu University Hospital. We focused on patients with organ-confined PCa who had not received neoadjuvant therapy prior to RARP. The primary endpoint was identified as the predictive factor of GG upgrading for RARP specimens compared to those of NB specimens. RESULTS Eighty-one patients were included in this study. The enrolled patients were divided into two groups: those who had GG upgrading for RARP specimens (the NB upgrade group) or those who did not have GG upgrading (the no upgrade group). The median age of all patients was 70 years, and the median body mass index (BMI) was 22.9 kg/m2. The median neutrophil count was 3720/μL, lymphocyte count was 1543/μL, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was 2.24. In univariate analysis, BMI, PSA, neutrophil count, and NLR were significantly associated with GG upgrading in RARP specimens compared to NB specimens. BMI and NLR were identified as strong predictive factors for GG upgrading in RARP specimens in the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS Although this study's small number of enrolled patients was a vital weakness, BMI and NLR might have been significantly correlated with GG upgrading for RP specimens compared with NB specimens. Therefore, BMI and NLR may have potential benefits for newly diagnosed patients with PCa in terms of decision-making and the selection of treatment modalities.

Revealing the prognostic and clinicopathological significance of systemic immune-inflammation index in patients with different stage prostate cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:1052943. [PMID: 36388917 PMCID: PMC9659961 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.1052943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundA novel inflammatory marker called the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) was applied to predict the prognosis of different cancers. However, the role of SII in prostate cancer (PCa) remains unclear. This systematic review aims to explore the prognostic role of SII in different stage PCa.MethodsWe comprehensively searched three public databases: PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. The hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted to evaluate the association between SII and the prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics in different stage PCa patients.ResultsTen studies and 7,986 patients were enrolled in our meta-analysis, 1,442 patients were diagnosed with metastatic-castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and 6544 patients were diagnosed with non-metastatic prostate cancer (nmPCa). According to the pooled results, we found that a high SII was associated with worse overall survival (OS) in mCRPC patients (HR = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.26–3.01, p = 0.003), and a high SII was associated with biochemical recurrence-free survival (BFS) in nmPCa patients (HR = 1.85, 95% CI: 1.06–3.24, p = 0.031). But there was no significant association observed between SII and progression-free survival (PFS) in mCRPC patients (HR = 1.90, 95% CI: 0.87–4.14, p = 0.107). And we found that the high SII was associated with advanced tumor stage of PCa (OR = 2.19, 95% CI: 1.11–4.33, p = 0.024), presence of lymph node involvement (OR = 2.72, 95% CI: 1.96–3.76, p < 0.001) and Gleason score (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.13–1.44, p < 0.001).ConclusionHigh SII was associated with bad OS in mCRPC patients, and associated with bad BFS and some adverse pathological features in nmPCa patients. We think SII can be a prognostic predictor for PCa patients. The application of SII will advance the diagnosis and treatment of different stage prostate cancer.

The Clinical Utility of Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index Supporting Charlson Comorbidity Index and CAPRA-S Score in Determining Survival after Radical Prostatectomy-A Single Centre Study. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14174135.

Abstract
The selection of candidates for the curative treatment of PCa requires a careful assessment of life expectancy. Recently, blood-count inflammatory markers have been introduced as prognosticators of oncological and non-oncological outcomes in different settings. This retrospective, monocentric study included 421 patients treated with radical prostatectomy (RP) for nonmetastatic PCa and aimed at determining the utility of a preoperative SII (neutrophil count × platelet count/lymphocyte count) in predicting survival after RP. Patients with high SIIs (≥900) presented significantly shorter survival (p = 0.02) and high SIIs constituted an independent predictor of overall survival [HR 2.54 (95%CI 1.24−5.21); p = 0.01] when adjusted for high (≥6) age-adjusted CCI (ACCI) [HR 2.75 (95%CI 1.27−5.95); p = 0.01] and high (≥6) CAPRA-S [HR 2.65 (95%CI 1.32−5.31); p = 0.006]. Patients with high scores (ACCI and/or CAPRA-S) and high SIIs were at the highest risk of death (p < 0.0001) with approximately a one-year survival loss during the first seven years after surgery. In subgroup of high CAPRA-S (≥6), patients with high ACCIs and high SIIs were at the highest risk of death (p <0.0001). Our study introduces the SII as a straightforward marker of mortality after RP that can be helpful in pre- and postoperative decision-making.
