    AbstractTo identify prognostic tumor-infiltrating immune cells of endometrial adenocarcinoma.The gene expression profiles of endometrial adenocarcinoma were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The abundance of tumor-infiltrating immune cells in endometrial adenocarcinoma samples was calculated by CIBERSORT algorithm. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to identify prognostic tumor-infiltrating immune cells.This study identified 22 kinds of tumor-infiltrating immune cells. Macrophages M0 and CD8 T cells were prognostic factors of endometrial adenocarcinoma. The abundance of macrophages M0 (P = .038) was significantly correlated with better prognosis of endometrial adenocarcinoma. In contrast, the abundance of CD8 T cells (P = .049) was associated with poor prognosis of endometrial adenocarcinoma.Tumor-infiltrati macrophages M0 and CD8 T cells were prognostic factors of endometrial adenocarcinoma.Copyright © 2021 the Author(s).
