Serum Immunoglobulin G Is Associated With Decreased Risk of Pancreatic Cancer in the Swedish AMORIS Study

Abstract: Results: Compared to the reference level of 6.10-14.99 g/L, risk of pancreatic cancer was elevated among those with IgG levels <6.10 g/L [HR: 1.69 (95% CI 0.99-2.87)], and an inverse association was observed among those with IgG levels ≥15.00 g/L [0.82 (95% CI 0.64-1.05); Ptrend = 0.027]. The association appeared to be stronger for women than men [HR: 0.64 (95% CI 0.43-0.97) and 0.95 (95% CI 0.69-1.29), respectively]. No associations were observed with IgA or IgM. Conclusion: An inverse association was observe… Show more

“…Moreover, the evidence for an inverse association between pre-diagnostic serum IgG level and the risk of developing melanoma or pancreatic cancer was found in the Swedish Apolipoprotein-related MORtality RISk (AMORIS) cohort study. The humoral response might provide a protective role against the development of melanoma or pancreatic cancer, mediated through IgG [19,37]. In the current study, we revealed that a higher IgG level was not only an independent prognostic factor, but was also associated with better OS in TSCC patients (HR = 0.385; 95% CI: 0.176-0.840; P = 0.017).…”

“…For example, higher pre-treatment lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) have been shown to be associated with a better prognosis in various tumors [15][16][17][18]. And the lower immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels predicted an elevated risk of developing pancreatic cancer compared to the reference levels [19]. Thus, the current study aims to establish a nomogram to predict TSCC patient's outcome based on clinical characteristics and serological in ammation markers which are easy to obtain from routine admission laboratory tests, and assesses the performance of the nomogram with internal validation using a bootstrap resampling method.…”

The humoral response might provide a protective role against the development of melanoma or pancreatic cancer, mediated through IgG [ 19 , 37 ]. In the current study, we revealed that a higher IgG level was not only an independent prognostic factor, but was also associated with better OS in OTSCC patients (HR = 0.385; 95% CI 0.176–0.840; P = 0.017).…”

“…Moreover, a recent study by Sollie et al reported an inverse association between pre-diagnostic serum levels of IgG and risk of PCa [ 197 ]. This was supported by a previously mentioned cohort study looking at the humoral immune response against oral bacteria, where high levels of antibodies had a 45% decreased risk of PCa.…”
