Abstract | Introduction: Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) has been proposed as a novel cancer target due to its regulating role in both tumor and immune cells. However, the connection between GSK-3 and immunoevasive contexture, including tumor budding (TB) has not been previously examined. Methods: we investigated the expression levels of total GSK-3 as well as its isoforms (GSK-3β and GSK-3α) and examined their potential correlation with TB grade and the programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in colorectal cancer (CRC) tumor samples. Additionally, we compared the efficacy of GSK-3-inhibition with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade in humanized patient-derived (PDXs) xenografts models of high-grade TB CRC. Results: we show that high-grade (BD3) TB CRC is associated with elevated expression levels of total GSK-3, specifically the GSK-3β isoform, along with increased expression of PD-L1 in tumor cells. Moreover, we define an improved risk stratification of CRC patients based on the presence of GSK-3 Conclusions: our study provides compelling evidence for the clinical significance of GSK-3 expression and TB grade in risk stratification of CRC patients. Moreover, our findings strongly support GSK-3 inhibition as an effective therapy specifically targeting high-grade TB in CRC. |
