Patient Responses

Cluster of differentiation (CD)-73 plays pivotal roles in the regulation of immune reactions via the production of extracellular adenosine, and the overexpression of CD73 is associated with worse outcomes in several types of cancers. Here, we identified 167 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients who underwent esophagectomy, including 64 and 103 patients with high and low expression levels of CD73, respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed high expression of CD73 was an independent prognostic factor for worse disease-free survival and overall survival. In addition, we selected another cohort consisting of 38 ESCC patients receiving nivolumab or pembrolizumab and found that treatment response and survival benefit to immunotherapy were strongly correlated with the expression levels of CD73/programmed death ligand 1. Moreover, the transwell assay revealed knockdown of CD73 in two ESCC cell lines, TE1 and KYSE30, exhibited significantly reduced abilities of cell invasion and migration. CD73 silencing also showed that the protein expression levels of CD73, vimentin, and snail were downregulated, while those of E-cadherin were upregulated in Western blotting. The findings of our study indicate CD73 may be an independent prognostic factor for ESCC patients who underwent esophagectomy. Furthermore, it may be associated with the patient responses to immunotherapy.
