摘要
Abstract Introduction: Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are a subset of immune cells that secrete type 1 interferons and serve as antigen presenting cells. In many tumors increased pDC frequencies have been observed and are involved in tumor response initiation. However, there is not much data in acute myeloid leukemia especially in the context of minimal residual disease. Here we evaluated the frequencies of pDCs in the post induction bone marrow and found a significant correlation with MRD levels. Methods: All adult (>18 years ) of patients who were treated for AML [other than AML with t(15;17)] were accrued over a 2 year period. The presence of MRD was assessed using 8 colour flow cytometry on a post induction bone marrows using CD45, CD36, CD38, CD123, CD33, CD117, CD34, HLADR, CD7, CD56, CD13, CD19, CD16, CD11b, CD15 and CD14. Minimum of 500,000 events were acquired/tube on an 8 colour BD FACS Canto II or a 10 colour BC Navios instruments. Kaluza software (v1.3) was used to analyze the .fcs files. MRD was calculated as a percentage of abnormal leukemic cells per total viable cells as gated in forward scatter v side scatter plot. pDCs were calculated as CD123 bright population which expressed HLA-DR (while gating on the progenitors and monocytes based on their expression of CD45 and side scatter). The pDC percentages were counted as a fraction of all viable cells. Based on the results the levels of pDCs were divided into pDC High and pDC Low groups. Statistical analysis was done using Chi squared groups. Results: After exclusion of induction deaths, a total of 94 patients of adult AML was assessed for the presence of MRD at the end of induction. Of these MRD was detected in 48 (51.1%, range 0.01-40%). pDC values ranged from Conclusion: These pilot data seem to indicate that the pDC burden in the bone marrow may have a role in influencing MRD clearance in the bone marrow. A detailed investigation of the pDC function in the bone marrow microenvironment is warranted. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.
