Abundance of Tumor-Infiltrating B Cells in Human Epithelial Malignancies

Cancer is a major global health problem. The type of malignant neoplasm and the potency of the immune response against tumors are two of the key factors influencing the outcome of the disease. The degree of tumor infiltration by lymphocytes plays an important role in antitumor response development, generally correlating with a favorable prognosis of treatment for certain cancers. We analyzed the abundance of tumor-infiltrating B cells (TIBs) in solid tumors of different cancers. TIBs were shown to be more abundant in colon and sigmoid colon cancer samples compared with cecal, rectal, and kidney cancer samples. The median and interquartile range of the TIB fraction were 11.5% and 4-20% in colon cancer, 6% and 3-11% in sigmoid colon cancer, 2.7% and 0.7-3.7% in cecal cancer, 2.5% and 0.9-3.6% in rectal cancer, 1.4% and 1.0-2.3% in kidney cancer, and 3.0% and 1.8-12% in lung cancer, respectively. However, there were no significant differences in the abundance of TIBs among samples at different stages of the cancer. Hence, investigation of the B cell response in colon cancer is of particular interest, since increased quantities of TIBs may indicate the existence of immunogenic tumor markers or the cell-cell interactions involved in disease progression. We believe that studying the diversity of TIBs in colon cancer will increaseour understanding of the mechanisms of the disease, contributing to the identification of new molecular targets for targeted oncotherapy.
