Resumen
Introducción: El linfoma de Hodgkin clásico presenta escasas células de Reed Sternberg/Hodgkin inmersas en un abundante microambiente tumoral. Los desbalances genómicos del locus 9p24.1 han sido asociados con alteraciones en la expresión de los genes del ligando de muerte celular 1 y 2, ambos reguladores de la respuesta inmune. Objetivo: Evaluar desbalances genómicos del locus 9p24.1 en células de Reed Sternberg/Hodgkin y del microambiente tumoral en biopsias de pacientes con linfoma de Hodgkin clásico y correlacionarlo con la expresión del ligando de muerte celular 1 y la presentación de la enfermedad. Materiales y Métodos: Se efectuó hibridación in situ en biopsias de 22 pacientes con linfoma de Hodgkin clásico dirigida a los genes del ligando de muerte celular 1 y 2. Las alteraciones se clasificaron en: amplificación, ganancia y polisomía. La expresión se evaluó mediante inmunohistoquímica. Resultados: Todos los pacientes mostraron alteraciones del número de copias. Se diferenciaron dos grupos: con amplificación (32%) y sin amplificación (68%); este último subdividido en: rico en ganancia (53%) y rico en polisomías (47%). El grupo rico en polisomías mostró mayor edad (p=0,027). El 40% de los pacientes con amplificación y rico en ganancias no presentó masa bulky. La expresión proteica mostró score +3 sólo en estos últimos. El 100% de los casos ricos en polisomías presentaron monosomía del cromosoma 9 en los linfocitos circundantes respecto al 36,4% de los otros dos grupos. Conclusiones: Nuestros datos constituyen un aporte a la caracterización biológica del LHC, de interés en el marco de las nuevas modalidades terapéuticas.
Background: Classical Hodgkin lymphoma shows scarce tumor Reed-Sternberg/Hodgkin cells surrounded by a dense immune microenvironment. Genetic alterations at the 9p24.1 locus result in genomic imbalances in the copy number of PD-L1/PD-L2 genes, both of them being immune response regulators. Aim: To characterize genomic imbalances at the 9p24.1 locus in Reed-Sternberg/Hodgkin cells and immune microenvironment in biopsies of patients with Classical Hodgkin lymphoma and correlate it with PD-L1 protein expression and disease presentation. Material and Methods: Paraffin embedded biopsies of 22 patients with CHL were retrospectively evaluated by fluorescence in situ hybridization using SPEC CD274/PDCD1LG2/CEN9 DNA probe. The frequency of 9p24.1 alterations, amplification, copy gain and polysomy, were determined taking into account the number of gene copies with respect to the centromere. PD-L1 protein expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Results: All cases presented alterations in the number of copies of PD-L1 / PD-L2, which are differentiated in two groups: with amplification (32%) and without amplification (68%). The latter was subdivided into rich in gains (RG) (53%) and rich in polysomies (RP) (47%). Groups with amplification and RG were younger than the RP group (p = 0.027). The latter was not associated with bulky disease, a fact observed in 40% of patients with amplification and RG. Protein expression showed score +3 only in the latter. All RP cases presented chromosome 9 monosomy in the surrounding lymphocytes, compared to 36.4% of the other two groups. Conclusions: Our data contributes to the biologic characterization of CHL, of interest in the context of new therapeutic modalities.
