Summary: | To date, there have been no reports on tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in primary adenocarcinoma of jejunum and ileum. In this study, we employed digital pathology image analysis software to classify and quantify TLS, and evaluated the maturity of TLS using immunohistochemistry. Molecular genetics and immunotherapy biomarker detection were performed using next-generation sequencing technology, such as tumor mutational burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability (MSI). The aim of this study was to investigate the presence, location, maturity, association with immunotherapy biomarkers, and prognostic value of TLS in primary adenocarcinoma of jejunum and ileum. Compared to secondary follicle-like TLS (SFL-TLS), intra-tumoral TLS (IT-TLS) were more likely to manifest as early TLS (E-TLS) (P = 0.007). Compared to IT-TLS, SFL-TLS had a higher propensity to occur at the invasive margin (IM) (P = 0.032) and showed a trend towards being more prevalent at the tumor periphery (P = 0.057). In terms of immunotherapy biomarkers, there was a higher trend of IM-TLS density in PD-L1(22C3) score CPS |
