dc.description.abstractTim3 is a negative immune checkpoint molecule and plays a crucial part in tumor-induced immune suppression. Tim3 is a cell surface molecule expressed on T cells marking dysfunctional CD8+ cells in various kinds of cancers. Tim3 expression was mainly reported in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). There are few studies focusing on the expression of Tim3 in tumor cells. Immunohistochemistry was performed to determine Tim3 expression level. The relationships between Tim3 expression in colorectal cancer cells and in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and cilicopathological parameters were statistically analyzed. Tim3 was differentially detected in TILs and in colorectal cancer cells. Positive expression of Tim3 in colorectal cancer cells was associated with tumor location (P=0.001), depth of tumor invasion (P<0.001), lymph node metastasis (P=0.001), TNM stage (P=0.001), MSI (P=0.008), and Braf V600E mutation (P=0.001). On the other hand, positive expression of Tim3 in TILs was only related to depth of tumor invasion (P<0.001). Positive expression of Tim3 in both colorectal cancer cells and TILs was associated with depth of tumor invasion (P<0.001), lymph node metastasis (P=0.002), TNM stage (P=0.002), MSI (P=0.039), and Braf V600E mutation (P=0.009). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that Tim3 expression in colorectal cancer and in TILs was significantly associated with patient overall survival (OS) rate (P=0.039, and 0.001). Tim3 may be a potential prognostic marker and a therapy target for colorectal cancer.es
