Аннотация
AIM: Periampullary adenocarcinoma (PAC) is a malignant tumor originating at the ampulla of Vater, distal common bile duct, head of the pancreas, ampulla and duodenum. The levels of circulating Th17 cells and Th17-related cytokines in patients with PAC remain unreported. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the levels of circulating Th17 cells and Th17-related cytokines in patients with PAC.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Flow cytometry was used to measure Th17 cell proportions in PBMCs from 60 PAC patients and 30 healthy controls. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify IL-17A and IL-23 levels in serum samples, while quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assessed IL-17A mRNA expression and Th17-related transcription factors (RORγt and STAT3) in tissue samples.
RESULTS: The findings showed a substantial increase in Th17 cell percentages, elevated concentrations of IL-17A and IL-23, and higher mRNA expression levels of IL-17A, RORγt, and STAT3 in patients with PAC when compared to healthy controls (HCs).
CONCLUSION: Th17 cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of PAC and may represent potential therapeutic targets.
