12-Chemokine signature, a predictor of tumor recurrence in colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) provide an immunological antineoplastic effect. Recent evidences link a unique 12-chemokine (CCL2, -3, -4, -5, -8, -18, -19, -21, CXCL9, -10, -11, -13) signature status from tumor tissue and the TLS expression. However, the potential significance of 12-chemokine signature status for clinical use is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the association of 12-chemokine signature status with patient outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC). We used integrated data of resected 975 CRC cases within three independent cohorts from France, Japan and the United States (GSE39582, KUMAMOTO from Kumamoto university hospital and TCGA). The association of 12-chemokine signature status with clinicopathological features, patient outcome, TLS expression status and key tumor molecular
