Abstract EN
Bladder cancer is the ninth most common malignancy all over the world.
Immune picture is important in predicting clinical outcome with bladder cancer, so the aim of the present study was to investigate the number of killer cells in the tissue of the patients with the malignant and benign bladder cancer before treatment by using an antigen retrieval immunohistochemical method on archived bladder tumors tissue.
In our study, the number of the patients tissue with malignant cancer that staining by immunohistochemistry of NK cells (20 %) was lower than in benign (80 %) (p≤0.01).
The results of the present study were indicated that the lower level of the NK cells in the malignant tissues may be leads to impaired anti-tumor immune response toward the tumor cells and is subsequently unable to suppress progression of the tumor.
