Abstract
CXCL12 expression was significantly lower in tumor samples than in corresponding normal samples. CXCL12 expression was significantly positively related to the infiltration levels of T cells, dendritic cells (DCs), immature DCs, cytotoxic cells, Tfh cells, mast cells, B cells, Th1 cells, natural killer (NK) cells, pDCs, neutrophils, and T helper cells (Spearman correlation coefficient > 0.5, P < 0.001) and negatively correlated with the infiltration level of NK CD56bright cells. In addition, pancreatic hTERT-HPNE cells treated with three diverse CXCL12 isoforms exhibited changes mainly in the regulation of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition activation pathway.
Core Tip: CXCL12 expression was significantly lower in tumor samples than in normal samples. CXCL12 expression was significantly positively associated with the infiltration levels of 12 immune cells, especially T cells, which may encourage further exploration of the effect of CXCL12 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma immunotherapy. In addition, treating pancreatic hTERT-HPNE cells with three diverse CXCL12 isoforms mainly affected the regulation of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition activation pathway.
