An independent predictor of poor prognosis in locally advanced rectal cancer: rs867228 in formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1)

Oncoimmunology. 2021 May 14;10(1):1926074. doi: 10.1080/2162402X.2021.1926074.

Abstract

Formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) plays a key regulatory role in innate and adaptive immunity. Recently, we reported that the CC genotype of FPR1-E346A (rs867228, c. 1037 A > C) is an independent biomarker for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) who received preoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Pharmacologic inhibition of FPR1 decreased the migration and infiltration of T lymphocytes into tumor microenvironment after CCRT.

Keywords: CCRT; DAMP; FPR1; ICD; antitumor immunity.
