BACKGROUND/AIM: Prognostic indicators for postoperative lung adenocarcinoma are elusive. The interaction between CD24 on tumor cells and sialic-acid-binding Ig-like lectin 10 (Siglec10) on tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) is implicated in immune evasion in distinct tumors. However, the therapeutic significance of phagocytic checkpoints in lung adenocarcinoma remains unknown. We aimed to investigate the clinical relevance and prognostic significance of phagocytosis checkpoints mediated by Siglec10 in TAMs of patients with lung adenocarcinoma who underwent curative resection.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this single-center retrospective study, we analyzed the data of 423 patients with stage I lung adenocarcinoma resected between 1999 and 2016. Tissue microarrays were constructed, and CD24, CD68, and Siglec10 immunohistochemistry was performed. Additionally, we assessed the clinical significance and prognostic associations of these markers.

RESULTS: CD24 expression was higher in the Siglec10-high expression group than that in the -low expression group. Multivariate analysis showed that combined high Siglec10 and CD24 expression was an independent predictor of recurrence-free probability. The combined high Siglec10 and CD68 expression was a significant independent predictor of overall survival. Univariate analysis demonstrated that the 5-year probability of post-recurrence survival of patients with combined high Siglec10 and CD68 expression was lower than that of the other patients.

CONCLUSION: High TAM Siglec10 expression and tumor CD24 expression are correlated, and the high Siglec10+CD24 combination is a major risk factor for recurrence. CD68+Siglec10 TAMs are important prognostic factors. Siglec10 expression on TAMs is essential for tumor microenvironment immunoregulation and offers a promising new immunotherapeutic approach for lung adenocarcinoma.
