TCR CDR3-CMV Antigen Chemical Complementaries Are Associated With a Worse Outcome for Renal Cell Carcinoma
Anticancer Research(2024)
摘要
BACKGROUND/AIM:Due to still unresolved questions regarding viruses as either a primary cause or a comorbidity in cancer, we examined a potential immune response to cytomegalovirus (CMV) in the renal cell carcinoma (RCC) setting using genomics and bioinformatics approaches.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:Specifically, we assessed chemical complementarity scores (CSs) for solid tissue normal resident, T-cell receptor (TCR) complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3s) and CMV antigens and determined whether higher or lower CS groups were associated with a higher or lower survival probability.
RESULTS:This was indeed the case, with all such analyses consistently indicating a lower overall and progression-free survival for the cases representing the higher TCR CDR3-CMV antigen chemical CSs. This basic result was obtained for two separate RCC datasets and multiple CMV antigens.
CONCLUSION:The results raise the question, to what extent a systemic CMV infection may represent an important co-morbidity for RCC.
