A numerical alteration in chromosome complement in human dermal fibroblast cultures, hyperdiploidy with a normal occurrence of tetraploidy (IVH) has been reported (Danes 1984) to be associated with some heritable single tumors including squamous carcinoma of the nasopharynx (Danes 1986). The incidence of IVH was compared in cultures derived from 65 patients with squamous carcinoma in different regions of the aerodigestive tract (ADT) and 32 clinically normal subjects without a family cancer history by 2 different assays, metaphase assay (MA) and flow cytometry (FCM). By MA, none of the 32 normals showed IVH. Of the 65 ADT patients studied, 35 had IVH and 30 did not. By FCM, there were significant differences in the FCM DNA index (p values less than 0.001) of IVH- (all normals and 30 ADT patients) and IVH+ ADT patients. The per cent of cells with a DI of 2 and greater than 1 could be used to distinguish all IVH- from the IVH+ subjects and were thus considered to be the parameters of choice in assaying IVH by FCM. None of the subjects studied showed increased in vitro tetraploidy (IVT) which has been associated with some heritable colon cancer syndromes. Irrespective of family cancer history, approximately half (35/65) of the ADT patients had IVH which has been shown to be associated with the in vivo expression of certain heritable tumors. The average age of squamous carcinoma diagnosis was earlier (mean 50 yrs) for the IVH+ group than for the IVH- ADT group (mean 72 yrs). 相似文献

Adenoid squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) is an uncommon but well-recognized variant of squamous cell carcinoma that was first described by Lever in 1947. ASCC has been reported to originate in the sun-exposed skin of the head and neck and in other sites. An additional case of ASCC is reported here. The patient was a 64-year-old Japanese woman who requested examination of a reddish lesion on the left floor of the mouth. The biopsy material was diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma. Clinical examination showed a well-circumscribed, 20 x 10 mm-sized lesion, which was categorized as cT2cN0cm 0. Tumor resection was therefore performed. Histologically, most parts of the lesion were conventional squamous cell carcinoma in situ, but the invasive part consisted of ASCC with gland-like or reticular appearance. The latter part was negative for mucin staining. Immunohistochemically, this lesion was positive for pancytokeratin, high-molecular-weight keratin, cytokeratin (CK) 7/8, CK19, E-cadherin and p53, but negative for vimentin, CK20, and S-100 protein. The Ki-67 labeling index was 50.3% in the ASCC part and 34.5% in the carcinoma in situ part. These findings and a review of the literature indicate that a gland-like feature of ASCC is associated with the loss of cell adhesion in the center of the cancer nests, and it can be confirmed simply by mucin staining to be neither an adenosquamous carcinoma nor ductal involvement of conventional squamous cell carcinoma. 相似文献

Eosinophils are frequently encountered with squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and it has been proposed that tumor‐associated tissue eosinophilia (TATE) could be of prognostic significance in oral SCC. The aim was to evaluate TATE in 83 oral cavity and 16 lip SCCs as well as the best possible use of TATE as a prognostic marker. The number of eosinophils was counted per high power fields (HPF, ×400) in three different representative areas of the tumor and its stroma. The degree of TATE was analyzed in relation to clinicopathological features of tumors and patients’ survival (follow‐up mean 40.7 months) using Fisher's exact test. TATE was detected in 58 (70%) oral and 8 (50%) lip SCC samples. The median number of eosinophils between oral and lip SCC was different (p = 0.028) but TATE was similar per HPF (p = 0.085). Totally, 6% of lip and 21% of oral SCC patients died during the follow‐up. The patients with the higher TATE had significantly better survival than the patients with the lower TATE (p = 0.0136). The best cut‐off value predicting the survival was 4 eosinophils/HPF. TATE is a prognostic marker for oral and lip SCC: more than 4 eosinophils/HPF may predict more favorable prognosis. 相似文献

This study examined the initial behaviour of 48 human oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) in cell culture. The early outcome of these cultures (contamination, absence of cell growth, epithelial cell senescence/fibroblast overgrowth, extended keratinocyte growth) did not reflect the clinical characteristics of the tumours of origin. Four new human oral SCC cell lines were characterized more extensively. Each cell line was immortal, 3T3-independent, and expressed low degrees of anchorage independence (CFE less than 4 per cent). Two of the four cell lines were tumorigenic in athymic mice. All of the cell lines expressed keratin intermediate filaments and two showed weak co-expression of vimentin. A wide range of keratins were expressed by the tumour xenografts; cornified keratins (K1, K10) were only expressed in the absence of K19 and vimentin, and vice versa. The nuclear:cytoplasmic ratio and the degree of serum independence correlated with each other and with the STNMP clinical grading of the tumours of origin. 相似文献

In addition to their role in maintenance of tissue integrity, cell adhesion molecules regulate the growth and differentiation of stratified squamous epithelia. Reduced expression of E-cadherin and the α2β1, α3β1 and α6β4 integrins is already reported to correlate with poor histological differentiation in oral squamous cell carcinomas. However, it is not clear how closely cadherin and integrin loss are related in any given tumour, nor whether cadherin loss is correlated with changes in expression of the cytoplasmic regulatory proteins known as catenins. Double-label immunofluorescence has been used to stain a panel of 22 oral squamous cell carcinomas with antibodies to ten proteins, including E- and P-cadherin, the major keratinocyte integrin subunits, and α-, β- and γ-catenin. Overall, E-cadherin expression and integrin expression correlated well with tumour grade, while P-cadherin staining was more variable. All tumours, regardless of differentiation status, showed reduced staining for at least two of the catenins, implying that the adhesive function of E- and P-cadherin could be impaired even when cadherin expression is normal. It is concluded that in all squamous cell carcinomas, regardless of degree of histological differentiation, there is some perturbed expression of cell adhesion molecules and that integrin and E-cadherin loss are closely related. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection plays a significant role in the development and progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Expression of miR‐21 has a prognostic role in a wide variety of cancers. The upregulation of miR‐21 suppresses a number of target genes, including phosphatase tensin homologue (PTEN) and programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4). We investigated the association between the expression of miR‐21 and the clinical features of HNSCC using stratified analysis based on HPV infection status. HPV status and miR‐21 expression in HNSCC tissues from 167 patients were evaluated using in situ hybridization. The expression of PDCD4 and PTEN was examined by immunohistochemistry. The up‐regulation of stromal miR‐21 expression occurred in 40.6% of HPV‐negative samples and 28.3% of the HPV‐positive group. In HPV‐stratified multivariate analysis, high miR‐21 expression was associated with poor cancer‐specific survival in HPV‐negative tumors, but not in HPV‐positive tumors. There was a significant association between miR‐21 and cytoplasmic PDCD4 overexpression in HPV‐negative HNSCCs. We suggest that stromal miR‐21 expression is an independent prognostic factor in HPV‐negative tumors and miR‐21 may play different roles depending on HPV infection status. 相似文献

Many studies have proposed an important role of viruses in the pathogenesis of oral cancer. The present study aimed to find out the prevalence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), and human papillomavirus (HPV) among patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in a Pakistani cohort. We investigated tissue samples obtained from 58 patients with OSCC using the polymerase chain reaction assay. No sample was positive for HPV. EBV was identified in 15 patients (25.86%), and CMV in three patients (5.17%). Coinfection with one or more viruses was detected in two cases and was coinfection with EBV and CMV. These results suggest a low prevalence of these viruses in OSCC patients in the Pakistani population compared to most other countries where the prevalence of these viruses has been reported in the past. Nevertheless, further studies are necessary to determine the potential role of EBV and the possible importance of CMV as an infection cofactor in oral cancer. 相似文献

IntroductionMyeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are critically involved in cancer immune suppression and MDSC density has been recognized as a robust prognostic biomarker. Here, we sought to characterize the densities and locations of CD11b+ MDSCs in primary oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and determine their prognostic significance.Material and methodsA total of 144 eligible OSCC samples from a tertiary referral oral cancer center were retrospectively collected. Intensities of CD11b+ MDSCs at the tumor center (CT) and invasive margin (IM) in OSCC samples were detected by immunohistochemistry and automatically quantified using Image J software. The optimal cutoff values for CD11b CT and CD11b IM were determined by X-tile based on overall survival. The associations between CD11b+ MDSCs and clinicopathological parameters were assessed by the χ2 test. The prognostic value of CD11b+ MDSCs was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier plots, Cox regression analyses and receiver operating characteristics curves.ResultsHigh density of CD11b+ MDSCs at CT or IM was significantly associated with inferior overall and disease-free survival (Kaplan-Meir, p < 0.05, log-rank test). CD11b CT and CD11b IM were identified as independent prognostic predictors for patient survival. The prediction accuracy and specificity of CD11b CT and CD11b IM were superior to other prognostic parameters.ConclusionsOur data indicated that increased densities of CD11b+ MDSCs in CT and IM regions were significantly associated with poor prognoses, which might be novel prognostic factors for OSCC. 相似文献

Flotillin-2 (Flot-2) is an important component of cellular membrane, which involves in various cellular processes and recent studies have revealed that Flot-2 played important roles in cancer progression. The expression and prognostic impact of Flot-2 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) have not been well studied. So, a tissue microarray (TMA) based on immunohistochemical analysis of surgical resection of tumor tissues of 78 cases of OSCC patients and 27 cases of adjacent non-cancerous squamous epithelium tissues was conducted. This study focused on detecting Flot-2 expression and analyzing its prognostic impact on OSCC. The result showed that the positive percentage of Flot-2 expression in OSCC (74.4%, 58/78) was significantly higher than that in adjacent non-cancerous squamous epithelium tissues (25.9%, 7/27) (P<0.001). Additionally, the positive expression of Flot-2 in OSCC patients with a history of alcohol consumption was significantly higher than those nonusers (P=0.027). Both univariate and multivariate survival analysis indicated that increased expression Flot-2 protein was significantly correlated inversely with overall survival rates in OSCC patients (P=0.046, P=0.002). Taken together, positive expression of Flot-2 protein may be an independent biomarker for poor prognosis in OSCC. 相似文献

The frequency of amyloid deposits associated with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and dysplasia in the oral cavity, pharynx and larynx was examined. In addition, the origin of amyloid proteins by immunohistochemical staining with a panel of anticytokeratin monoclonal antibodies was investigated. Amyloid deposits were found in eight of 73 (11.0%) SCC and one of seven (14.3%) dysplasias in the oral cavity, in eight of 22 (36.4%) SCC and zero of two (0%) dysplasias in the pharynx, and in 22 of 37 (59.5%) SCC and four of 10 (40.0%) dysplasias in the larynx. Eight of 12 different cytokeratin (CK) antibodies reacted with these deposits: 34 beta E12 (CK1, -5, -10, -14) reacted with amyloid deposits in 19 of 19 cases (100%), LL002 (CK14) in eight of 18 cases (44.4%), MNF116 (CK5, -6, -8, -17) in eight of 19 cases (42.1%), D5/16B4 (CK5, -6) in five of 18 cases (27.8%), DE-K10 (CK10) in four of 17 cases (23.5%), RCK108 (CK19) in three of 18 cases (16.7%), 34 beta B4 (CK1) in three of 19 cases (15.8%) and AE8 (CK13) in two of 17 cases (11.8%). These antibodies always reacted with the cytoplasm of squamous cell lesions. Amyloid deposits in two cases contained a CK5 and CK14 pair, and in another two cases they contained both a CK5 and CK14 pair, and a CK1 and CK10 pair. Anti-CK antibodies, including OV-TL12/30 (CK7), c-51 (CK8), DC10 (CK18) and IT-Ks20.8 (CK20) did not react with the amyloid deposits. We conclude that the amyloid deposits associated with SCC or dysplasia in the oral cavity, pharynx or larynx were derived from CK of cancer cells and that some amyloid deposits might be assembled by two or more different CK. 相似文献

In Okinawa, a subtroplcal Island In southern Japan, squamous cell Carcinoma (SCC), especially the well-differentiated form, Is prevalent, while this form is relatively rare in both the mainland and other countries (e.g. United States of America). More patlents with SCC from Okinawa, moreover, were positive for human papillomavlrus (HPV) DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (79%), and harbored HPV types 6, 16 and 18, In combination. On the other hand, less than 30% of the mainland patlents were positive for HPV DNA by PCR. Those patients who were positive all harbored only one HPV type. Furthermore, in Okinawa, there were a signiflcant number of cases with adenosquamous carcinoma, and they too were positive for HPV DNA. The SCC and the adenocarcinoma cells adjacent to the SCC component In these cases were also positive for HPV DNA, and such adenocarcinoma cells were enlarged In size with relatively wide cytoplasm. The authors postulate that HPV infects adenocarcinoma cells and changes them to enlarged cells, followed by squamous metaplasla. In this report, HPV DNA was transfected to adenocarclnoma cells (cultured cell fines) and this showed that HPV causes squamous metaplasla. In addition, aberrant expression of p53 was demonstrated In a large number of the SCC cases In Okinawa. The enlarged adenocarclnoma cells adiacent to the SCC components In adenosquamous carcinomas also showed aberrant expression of p53.The recent advances In the studies of anti-oncogenes, p53, etc. and oncogenes are outlined. It Is to be noted that the molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis in the lung have been studied In general, classifying lung tumors Into two groups, namely, small cell carcinoma (SCLC) and non-small cell carcinoma (NSCLC). However, because human lung cancer is represented by a wide variety of histological types, molecular genetic studies according to a more detailed histological subclasslflcatlon is needed. 相似文献

Correlation of c-erbB-2 and S-100 expression with the malignancy grading and anatomical site in oral squamous cell carcinoma 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Albuquerque RL Miguel MC Costa AL Souza LB 《International journal of experimental pathology》2003,84(6):259-265
An immunohistochemical analysis of 32 cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma (eight in the inferior lip, eight in the lateral angle of the tongue, eight in the palate and eight in the mouth floor) was performed to evaluate the expression pattern of c-erbB-2 protein and S-100-positive cells in the lesions. The immunohistochemical expression was correlated with the tumour anatomical site and histological grading of malignancy. A higher frequency of c-erbB-2-positive cases was found in the tongue, even though no correlation could be detected between the protein expression and the tumour histological grading. With respect to the S-100-positive cells, it was observed that a quantitative decrease was present in the cases classified as high-grade tumours when compared to the low ones (P = 0.0007). Thus, c-erbB-2 immunohistochemical expression is correlated with anatomical localization, and the expression of the S-100 Langerhans' cell markers is decreased significantly in high-grade carcinomas. 相似文献

Reduction or loss of the intercellular junctions known as desmosomes may contribute to the invasive and metastatic behaviour of various carcinomas. Previous studies have shown that metastasis of oral squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck correlates with a reduction in immunohistochemical staining for desmoplakin and desmoglein at the invasion front. The primary aim of the present study was to extend these observations to include a third component of desmosomes, the glycoprotein desmocollin. An additional aim was to determine whether the differentiation status of tumours is reflected in their staining for cytokeratins 1, 13, and 19, and, if so, whether these parameters correlate with desmosomal staining and/or metastasis. The study included 54 primary tumours of which 28 showed lymph node metastases. The results of this investigation show that tumours can be divided into three groups according to whether they have lost staining for no, one or more than one desmosomal component. A statistically significant correlation was found between the number of desmosomal components lost and metastasis. Tumours could also be divided into five groups according to their staining for different combinations of cytokeratins. Furthermore, differentiation status as indicated both histologically and by cytokeratin staining correlated with reduced desmosomal staining and metastasis. Tumours were also examined for intensity of staining for the adhesion molecule E-cadherin. Reduction in E-cadherin staining was correlated with mode of invasion and with reduction in desmosomal staining, but not with poor differentiation as indicated by cytokeratin staining. The results of this extensive study reinforce the view that adhesive junctions and adhesion molecules contribute to the suppression of tumour invasion and metastasis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

By light microscopy, the dysplastic oral epithelia due to the neoplastic processes are similar to epithelial changes due to the inflammatory processes. Scanning electron microscopy may elucidate the different surface changes between the two. The aim of this study was to examine the surface appearances of the dysplastic oral epithelia adjacent to oral squamous cell carcinoma to see if there are any surface changes. A total of 2 specimens, one specimen from each patient with oral squamous cell carcinoma, were used for this study. Each specimen was divided in two. One half was prepared for light microscopy and the other half was prepared for scanning electron microscopy. Light microscopically, the epithelia showed mild dysplasia. By scanning electron microscopy, the keratinized cells showed irregular microridges surrounding pits, which were variable and irregular in size and shape, and the nonkeratinized cells showed parallel microridges with irregularly widened intervals between each microridge. Irregular, broad, and partly swollen microridges and irregular short, stubby surface projections were also seen. The oral epithelia adjacent to oral squamous cell carcinoma showed mild dysplasia light microscopically but appeared abnormal by scanning electron microscopy. The abnormal epithelial cells showed pleomorphism, irregular and disoriented microridges, and abnormal surface microstructures. 相似文献

Downregulated expression of KiSS‐1 has been correlated with tumor progression, metastasis, and patient prognosis in various human malignancies. However, there is no information regarding the expression of KiSS‐1 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Our aims were to examine KiSS‐1 expression in OSCC tissue samples and cell lines and to determine its prognostic significance. KiSS‐1 expression was significantly lower in lymph node (LN) metastases than in primary tumor tissues. Five of six OSCC cell lines showed absence or relatively low expression of KiSS‐1. Correlations between KiSS‐1 expression and clinicopathological parameters were statistically assessed. There were significant correlations between KiSS‐1 expression and LN metastasis (p = 0.007), TNM stage (p = 0.024), and local recurrence (p = 0.012). In the Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, negative KiSS‐1 expression significantly correlated with poorer overall survival (OS) and disease‐free survival (DFS) (p = 0.000 and 0.000, respectively). Multivariate analysis using Cox regression modeling revealed that KiSS‐1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for both OS and DFS (p = 0.001 and 0.000, respectively). Our findings suggested that KiSS‐1 downregulation may play a role in tumor progression and metastasis of OSCC and may be a reliable biomarker for predicting clinical outcome in OSCC. 相似文献
