Objective To evaluate immunosurveillance/editing in colorectal cancer.Design Transformation stimulates the production of interferon gamma (IFN gamma) which signals via the IFNg receptor (IFNGR1) on tumours. This results in stimulation of nuclear STAT1 (nSTAT1), inhibition of tumour growth and upregulation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) while promoting T cell extravasation. In contrast, downregulation of MHC class I by allele loss results in loss of T cell recognition. A tissue microarray of 462 colorectal tumours with mean follow-up of 42 months (range 1-116) was stained by immunohistochemistry for markers which predict immunosurveillance/editing.Results The presence of a high level of intratumoral T cells (ITTC) correlated with improved survival compared with a low level of ITTC, with a mean difference in survival of 16.3 months (p=0.006). There was a direct correlation between nSTAT1 expression and ITTC (p
