Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) of colon carcinoma (CC) include also cytotoxic T-cells that are generally considered as prognostically favourable because of their ability to exert anti-tumor immunity. As progression of CC occurs, the question arises whether the CC microenvironment may have some suppressive capabilities. We were interested if a recently discovered subgroup of T-cells, namely regulatory T-cells (TREG, CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+), which are able to functionally suppress immune responses and are supposed to lead to tumor progression, makes part of TIL of CC. We used immunohistochemical staining to detect lymphocytes co-expressing CD4+ and FOXP3+ in 44 cases of CC primary tumors, using formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded sections, and commercially available monoclonal antibodies. We were first indeed to show the occurence of FOXP3+ TREG lymphocytes in CC. What we found interesting in futher studies was the localization of FOXP3+ cells. We observed them in stroma, within the epitelium, but above all they formed invasive fragment between cancer and non-cancer tissue. This localization is very suspicious to play a role in local immune system, although to explain this fact there are futher experiments undergoing in our laboratory. Investigations, in fact, are in progress on: (i) differences in TREG distribution between left/right side-localized CC, (ii) differences in TREG distribution among CC in clinical stage I-IV, (iii) TREG behaviour in cases asssociated with microsatelite instability, which is known to have more favourable clinical outcome.
