The presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) in the tumor microenvironment has been demonstrated to be of prognostic value in various cancers. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigated the prognostic value of TIL in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). We performed a systematic search in PubMed for publications that investigated the prognostic value of TIL in LSCC. A meta-analysis was performed including all studies assessing the association between TIL counts in hematoxylin-eosin (HE)-stained sections, for CD8+ and/or CD3+/CD4+ TIL and overall survival (OS) or disease-free survival (DFS). The pooled meta-analysis showed a favorable prognostic role for stromal TIL in HE sections for OS (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.36–0.91, p = 0.02), and for DFS (HR 0.56, 95% CI 0.34–0.94, p = 0.03). High CD8+ TIL were associated with a prolonged OS (HR 0.62, 95% CI 0.4–0.97, p = 0.04) and DFS (HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.34–0.94, p = 0.002). High CD3+/CD4+ TIL demonstrated improved OS (HR 0.32, 95% CI 0.16–0.9, p = 0.03) and DFS (HR 0.23, 95% CI 0.10–0.53, p = 0.0005). This meta-analysis confirmed the favorable prognostic significance of TIL in LSCC. High stromal TIL evaluated in HE sections and intra-tumoral and stromal CD3+, CD4+ and/or CD8+ TIL might predict a better clinical outcome.

Background. Tumor budding is a promising prognostic indicator in several cancers especially in colorectal cancer. However, only few studies have been conducted to assess and validate its prognostic value in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma; none of which used pancytokeratin immunohistochemistry. In view of the modest results of treatment of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, the need of new prognostic indicators becomes of paramount importance. Aim of the Study. We aim to evaluate tumor budding in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, by haematoxylin and eosin, as well as by pancytokeratin immunohistochemistry. Material and Methods. A retrospective study on 118 cases of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma from archives of Pathology Lab of Ain Shams University Specialized Hospital and Ain Shams University Hospitals from January 2014 to January 2017. The ENT and histopathology reports were reviewed to determine clinicopathologic data of the patients. Results. Tumor budding shows high statistically significant relations ( p = 0.0001 for each) with important clinicopathological parameters of laryngeal carcinoma (site, grade, tumor stage, lymph node stage, lymph node extracapsular invasion, and vascular invasion). The extent of tumor budding correlated with overall survival, local recurrence disease free, and distant metastasis disease free ( p = 0.001 for each). Multivariate analysis showed tumor budding to be an independent prognostic factor affecting progression-free survival. There was a moderate agreement between H&E and IHC by pancytokeratin as regards detection of budding among study cases ( kappa = 0.593 ). Conclusions. Tumor budding was correlated with poor prognostic clinicopathologic indicators in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. It is recommended to use pancytokeratin immunohistochemistry to evaluate tumor budding in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma especially in confusing cases.

Objective: This study aims to construct a systematic mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA network to identify novel lncRNAs and miRNAs biomarkers for laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Methods: The mRNA, miRNA and lncRNA expression profiles of LSCC were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The differentially expressed mRNAs, miRNAs and lncRNAs (DEmRNAs, DEmiRNAs and DElncRNAs) were screened between LSCC tissues and controls. Functional analysis of DEmRNAs, DEmRNAs targeted by DEmiRNAs and DEmRNAs targeted by DElncRNAs were respectively performed. The miRWalk, starbase and DIANA-LncBase were respectively used to predict DEmiRNAs-DEmRNAs, DElncRNAs-DEmRNAs and DElncRNAs-DEmiRNAs pairs. ceRNA network was built by DEmiRNAs-DEmRNAs and DElncRNAs-DEmiRNAs pairs. LncRNA subcellular localization was predicted using lncLocator. Using published The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and external datasets (GSE127165 and GSE133632), we also validated the expression of key DElncRNAs and DEmiRNAs in ceRNA network. The diagnostic and prognostic value of candidate genes was evaluated by ROC curve analysis and survival analysis, respectively. Results: There were 5 mRNA datasets, 3 miRNA datasets and 2 lncRNA datasets in this study. Totally, 2957 DEmRNAs, 61 DElncRNAs and 23 DEmiRNAs were identified. Functional analysis of DEmRNAs shows that they were significantly enriched in cancer-related pathways, such as DNA replication and extracellular matrix organization. There were 11 DEmiRNAs, 17 DElncRNAs and 967 DEmRNAs in the ceRNA network. Notably, up-regulated lncRNA DGCR5-down-regulated has-miR-338-3p/has-miR-139-5p pairs in this network were experimentally validated. Moreover, down-regulated AL121839.2, down-regulated LINC02147, up-regulated AC079328.2, up-regulated AC004943.2 and up-regulated HMGA2-AS1 were located in the cytoplasm. AL121839.2 and LINC02147 interacted with has-miR-1246. AC004943.2, AC079328.2 and HMGA2-AS1 targeted has-miR-3185, has-miR-3137 and has-miR-582-5p, respectively. Based on the TCGA and external datasets (GSE127165 and GSE133632), DGCR5 and AC004943.2 were significantly up-regulated while AL121839.2 and LINC02147, has-miR-338-3p, has-miR-139-5p and has-miR-582-5p were significantly down-regulated, which were consistent with our integration analysis. DGCR5, AL121839.2, LINC02147, AC004943.2, has-miR-338-3p, has-miR-139-5p and has-miR-582-5p could predict the occurrence of LSCC. Survival analysis suggested that only, AL121839.2 has potential prognostic value for LSCC. Conclusion: This study provided novel insights into the ceRNA network and uncovered novel lncRNAs and miRNAs with diagnostic value in LSCC.

CCK8 assay, plate colony formation assay Cells, wound healing, migration and invasion assays were used to examine the ability of proliferation, movement, migration and invasion of LSCC cells.Results ALG3 immediately induced AURKA to promote LSCC metastasis. Moreover, ALG3 highly expressed in LSCC tissues and cells and the expression of ALG3 was positively related to tumor size, lymphatic metastasis and poor clinical prognosis. Furthermore, knockdown ALG3 in LSCC cells remarkably restrain cellular proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and vivo.Conclusion AlG3 induced AURKA to promote LSCC metastasis and ALG3 maybe potential prognostic value for LSCC.Brief AbstractAlG3 induces AURKA to promote laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma metastasis
