KRT17 Promotes T-lymphocyte Infiltration Through the YTHDF2–CXCL10 Axis in Colorectal Cancer

Abstract: Poor infiltration of T lymphocytes has been regarded as a crucial mechanism of tumor immune escape. Here, we demonstrate a protective role of KRT17 in colorectal cancer (CRC), where KRT17 reversed the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment by increasing T-lymphocyte infiltration. High-throughput RNA sequencing suggested KRT17 was significantly upregulated in deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) tumors compared to proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) tumors. In a CRC cohort of 446 cases, KRT17 expression positively … Show more

“…The persistent antigen stimulation or immunosuppressive signals can trigger functional decline or exhaustion in CTLs, with lower cytokine production and co-stimulatory molecule expression, and higher expression of immune checkpoint receptors and immunosuppressive enzymes [ 91 ]. Tumor immune exclusion refers to preventing T cell infiltration in tumors with low CTL abundance, known as “cold tumors” [ 90 , 92 ]. Tumor cells utilize different mechanisms to obstruct T cell infiltration.…”

“…IL-23, a member of the IL-12 cytokine family, is involved in the differentiation and expansion of IL-17-producing T cells, which are key effector cells in the development and progression of UC [25]. Indeed, IL-23 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a crucial role in the development and progression of UC by promoting the differentiation and activation of Th17 cells [14,26], which produce IL-17. IL-17 has been shown to contribute to the pathogenesis of UC by inducing inflammation and oxidative stress.…”

“…Regarding the density of CD3+/CD8+ T cells, evaluation was conducted in both the tumor invasive margin (IM) and tumor parenchyma regions. The density in these regions was determined by counting the number of positively staining cells per tumor sample 18 ( Figure 3 ).…”
