Abstract:
Purpose To evaluate the diagnostic values of Clusterin, CXCL13, Podoplanin (D2-40), CD21 and CD35 in follcular den-dritic cell sarcoma. Methods The expression levels of 10 cases of follcular dendritic cell sarcoma ( FDCS) and 12 types of FDCS mimics (83 cases in total) were investigated by immunohistochemical methods, the latter including solitary fibrous tumor, leiomyosar-coma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and others. The diagnostic validities of the five biomarkers were compared. Results ( 1 ) The positive rates of Clusterin, CXCL13, D2-40, CD21 and CD35 in the FDCS group were 100%, 70%, 60%, 90% and 80%, respec-tively, the corresponding rates in the control group were 30%, 4%, 11%, 2% and 0 in turn. (2) The five biomarkers could be cate-gorized into 3 groups, according to their diagnostic values in FDCS. The first group included CD21 and CD35, which had much higher sensitivities (90%, 80%), specificities (100%, 98%) and accuracies (98%, 96%), compared with the other biomarkers. The second group included CXCL13 and D2-40, which had a relatively lower sensitivities (70%, 60%), specificities (96%, 89%) and accuracies (94%, 86%), compared with CD21 and CD35. The third group included Clusterin, which had the highest sensitivity (100%), while the specificity (70%)and accuracy (73%) were inferior to the first and second groups. (3) The diagnostic values of CD21 and CD35 combination were 100%, 98%, 98%, 83% and 100%, respectively. Conclusions (1) CD21 and CD35 are the most valuable biomarkers for FDCS. The combined diagnostic effect of the two markers is generally superior to that of single marker. (2) Clusterin has the highest sensitivity for FDCS. However, the frequent expression in FDCS mimickers restricts its diagnostic values for FDCS. (3) CXCL13 and D2-40 may be used as a marker for FDCS, but are not recommended as the first selection based on their diagnostic performance. (4) On the reasons that FDCS mimickers may not uncommonly express Clusterin and D2-40, and rarely show positivity for CD21 or CXCL13, more attention should be paid to the phenomenon to avoid misdiagnosis.
