Abstract
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma are the two most common malignancies of salivary gland. Our study aims to explore the role of human endogenous Retrovirus-H long terminal repeat-associating protein 2, transmembrane and immunoglobulin domain-containing 2, and glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor in adenoid cystic carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma, and the relationship between human endogenous Retrovirus-H long terminal repeat-associating protein 2, transmembrane and immunoglobulin domain-containing 2, glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor, oncogenic signaling molecules, and cluster of differentiation 8. Custom-made human salivary gland tissue microarrays included 81 Adenoid cystic carcinoma, 52mucoepidermoid carcinoma, 76 normal salivary gland, and 14 pleomorphic adenoma samples. Immunohistochemical analysis of human endogenous Retrovirus-H long terminal repeat-associating protein 2, transmembrane and immunoglobulin domain-containing 2, and glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor, oncogenic phosphorylated Erk1/2 , the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) molecule transforming growth factor β1, and cluster of differentiation 8 was performed with salivary gland tissue microarray of human samples. According to a digital pathological system, we analyzed the correlation of immunostaining. The expression levels of human endogenous Retrovirus-H long terminal repeat-associating protein 2, transmembrane and immunoglobulin domain-containing 2, and glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor were significantly enhanced in the adenoid cystic carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma, compared with those of pleomorphic adenoma and NSG samples. However, the expression levels of human endogenous Retrovirus-H long terminal repeat-associating protein 2, transmembrane and immunoglobulin domain-containing 2, and glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor were independent of the pathological grade of malignancy of mucoepidermoid carcinoma and histological pattern of adenoid cystic carcinoma. They were closely related to phosphorylated Erk1/2 and transforming growth factor β1, but negligibly related to cluster of differentiation 8. These results described that certain immune checkpoint molecules, namely, human endogenous Retrovirus-H long terminal repeat-associating protein 2, transmembrane and immunoglobulin domain-containing 2, and glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor were overexpressed in Adenoid cystic carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma, but were independent of pathological grade, and may relate to transforming growth factor β1, phosphorylated Erk1/2, and cluster of differentiation 8.
