摘要: The prognosis of solid malignancies has been shown to depend on immunological parameters, such as macrophage polarisation (M1/M2). Recently, it was reported that preoperative oral surgery leads a worsening squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) prognosis. Diagnostic incision biopsies are procedures might lead healing-associated M2 with potential negative influence tumour biology. No studies have compared in OSCC and specimens. Preoperative diagnostic (n=25) resection specimens (n=34) T1/T2 were processed for immunohistochemistry detect CD68-, CD11c-, CD163- MRC1-positive cells. Samples digitised using whole-slide imaging, the expression markers quantitatively analysed. Carcinoma tissues obtained during resections showed significantly (P<0.05) increased CD163 count (M2 macrophages) biopsies. Additionally, CD163/CD68 ratio (an indicator polarisation) higher than This study revealed first time an increase samples biopsy-induced tissue trauma explain observed shift towards tumour-promoting type could accelerated progression.
