Abstract
Obitelj transkripcijskih faktora TCF/LEF od velikog je značaja u biologiji tumora. Predmet istraživanja u ovom radu bila je razina ekspresije TCF-1 i LEF-1, u astrocitomima različitih histopatoloških gradusa (I, II i III). Razine ekspresije TCF-1 i LEF-1 određene su metodom imunohistokemije. Utvrđena je ekspresija transkripcijskih čimbenika TCF-1 i LEF-1 lokalizirana u jezgrama stanica astrocitoma. Za TCF-1 određen je porast udjela stanica u kategorijama jake i srednje razine ekspresije, koji je u pozitivnoj korelaciji sa porastom gradusa, sa najvišim vrijednostima u astrocitomima gradusa III -jaka (4,67%), srednja (51,85%), a u njima je očekivano smanjen udio stanica niske ekspresije (43,46%). Za LEF-1 utvrđen je pad ekspresije u kategorijama srednje i niske razine ekspresije, dok je za razinu jake ekspresije određen porast ekspresije koji korelira sa porastom gradusa astrocitoma, sa najvišom vrijednošću jake ekspresije u astrocitomima III (3,73%). Prema našim rezultatima zaključujemo da je porast ekspresije TCF-1 i LEF-1 u pozitivnoj korelaciji sa porastom gradusa astrocitoma. Izraženost transkripcijskih čimbenika TCF-1 i LEF-1 upućuje na uključenost signalnog puta Wnt u nastanku i progresiji tumora mozga astrocitoma.
Abstract (english)
TCF/LEF family of transcription factors is of great significance in tumor biology. The subject of this research was to determine the levels of expression of TCF-1 and LEF-1, in astrocytoma of different histopathologic grade (I, II and III). Immunohistochemistry was the method of choice for determining the levels of expression of TCF-1 and LEF-1. The expression of transcription factors TCF-1 and LEF-1 was localised within the nuclei of astrocytic tumor cells. In case of TCF-1, there was an increase in percentage of cells in categories of strong and intermediate levels of expression, which is in positive correlation with the increasement of grade, with peak values in astrocytoma grade III -strong (4,67%), intermediate (51,85%), as expected there was decreasement in percentage of cells with low expression (43,46%). On the other hand, results for LEF-1 displayed decreased expression in categories with intermediate and low levels of expression, while for the level of strong expression was determined increase in expression which correlated with the increasement of astrocytomic grade, with the peak value in astrocytoma III (3,73). Based on our results, we conclude that the increase in expression of TCF-1 and LEF-1 is in positive correlation with the increase in astrocytoma grade. The expression of transcription factors TCF-1 and LEF-1 suggests activation of Wnt signaling pathway in formation and progression of astrocytic brain tumors.
