Abstract

Cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage are important for tumour cell migration, invasion and metastasis. Fusion between macrophages and cancer cells in animal models in vitro and in vivo causes hybrids with increased metastatic potential. Primary breast cancer cells were characterized for macrophage antigens to test if phenotypic resemblance to macrophages is related to early distant recurrence. Immunostaining for CD163, MAC387 and CD68 was performed in a breast cancer tissue micro array from 127 patients consequently followed up for a median of 13 years. Tumour‐associated macrophages expressed all 3 antigens. The breast cancers expressed CD163 to 48%, MAC387 to 14% while CD68 was not expressed. TGF‐β staining intensity was positively related to both CD163 and MAC387 expression. Expression of CD163 in the cancer cells was compared to their DNA ploidy, Nottingham Histological Grade, TNM‐stage, node state, presence of estrogen receptors and occurrence of distant metastases and survival. Cancers of a more advanced histological grade expressed CD163 to a higher extent. Cells expressing MAC387 were more common in cancers with a high proportion of CD163 positive cells. Multivariate analysis showed that expression of the macrophage antigen CD163 in breast cancer cells has a prognostic impact on the occurrence of distant metastases and reduced patient survival time. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
