The correlation of vascular endothelial growth factor with angiogenesis and p53 gene in laryngeal squamous celi carcinoma

Year 2006, Volume: 16 Issue: 3, 105 - 111, 30.06.2006

Abstract

Objectives: Angiogenesis is a fundamental process in tumour growth and metastasis. VEGF Vascular endothelial growth factor is a key regülatör of angiogenesis and it has been identified in a wide variety of malignancies, including head and neck squamous celi carcinoma.Hovvever, the regulation of VEGF expression in tumour angiogenesis is not well defined. The tumour-suppressor gene p53 has been thought to regulate VEGF. İn this study, we examined the role of p53 gene on VEGF expression.Patients and Methods: Clinical records of patients’ who undervvent total or partial laryngectomy betvveen 1999-2002 years were revievved. Of these, ali paraffin-embedded specimens of 27 patients 27 males; mean age 55 years; range 39 to 74 years with diagnosis of larynx epidermoid carcinoma were immunostained to evaluate VEGF expression, p53 gene status and microvessel density MVD .Variables were statistically examined.Results: Vascular endothelial growth factor positive staining was detected in 11 40.7% and p53 mutations were identified in 16 60% of 27 tumours. No association was detected betvveen p53 mutations and VEGF expression level p>0.05 . Statistical analysis gave a clear correlation betvveen the tumour vascularity and the VEGF protein expression p<0.05 . Vascular endothelial grovvth factor negative tumours shovved a lovver mean number of microvessels per micro- scopic field 29.6±6.6 than VEGF positive tumours 40.8±15.2 . P53 and VEGF expression levels and MVD did not correlate with the T- stage, N-status, tumour localization and histological grading p>0.05 .Conclusion: The higher microvessel density in VEGF positive tumours supports the importance of VEGF for tumour angiogenesis in laryngeal carcinoma. Hovvever, our result does not support the hypothesis of a p53 regulation on the angiogenic process through a VEGF up-regulation.

Larenksin skuamöz hücreli kanserlerinde vasküler endotelyal büyüme faktörünün anjiyogenez ve p53 geni ile ilişkisi

Year 2006, Volume: 16 Issue: 3, 105 - 111, 30.06.2006

Abstract

Amaç: Anjiyogenez tümör büyümesi ve metastazındaki temel süreçlerden biridir. VEGF Vascular endothelial growth factor , anjiyogenezin temel düzenleyicisidir ve baş-boyun skuamöz hücreli karsinomunun da içerisinde bulunduğu birçok malignitede saptanmıştır. Fakat,tümör anjiyogenezinde VEGF ekspresyonunun düzenlenmesi tamolarak aydınlatılamamıştır. Bir tümör-süpressör gen olan p53 genininVEGF ekspresyonunun düzenleyicisi olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, p53 geninin VEGF ekspresyonu üzerindeki etkisi incelendi.Hastalar ve Yöntemler: 1999 ve 2002 yılları arasında, total veya parsiyel larenjektomi ameliyatı uygulanan hastalara ait klinik kayıtlar gözden geçirildi. Bunlardan larenks epidermoid karsinomu tanısı konmuş27 hastanın parafine batırılmışspesimenleri çalışmaya alındı. Örnek dokularda, VEGF ekspresyonu,p53 gen durumu ve mikrodamar yoğunluğu MDY immünhistokimyasal yöntemle incelendi. Değişkenler istatistiksel olarak değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Vascular endothelial growth factor pozitifliği 11 tümörde %40.7 ve p53 mutasyonları 16 tümörde %60 saptandı. P53 mutasyonları ile VEGF ekspresyon derecesi arasında bir ilişki bulunamadı p>0.05 . İstatistiksel olarak tümör vaskülarizasyonu ile VEGF proteinekspresyonu arasında anlamlı bir ilişki vardı p0.05 .Sonuç: Vascular endothelial growth factor pozitif tümörlerde MDY’ninyüksek olması larenks karsinomu anjiyogenezinde VEGF’nin öneminiortaya koymaktadır. Fakat sonuçlarımız, p53 geninin VEGF ekspresyonunu değiştirerek anjiyogenezi düzenlediği hipotezini desteklememektedir
