Abstract
Tumori sjemenika su najčešći tumori koji pogađaju muškarce u najreproduktivnijoj dobi od 15 do 45 godina. Tumori zametnih stanica sjemenika (engl. testicular germ cell tumor, TGCT) dijagnosticiraju se u oko 95 % slučajeva, što ih čini najčešćim oblikom tumora sjemenika. Kao vrlo heterogena skupina neoplazija, ugrubo se dijele na seminome i neseminome, a nerijetko se javljaju u obliku miješanih tumora zametnih stanica. Geni SOX2 i SOX17 su uključeni u regulaciju diferencijacije embrionalnih stanica i danas se koriste kao tkivni biomarkeri u dijagnostici embrionalnog karcinoma i seminoma. CALCA je gen supresor tumora, čija je ekspresija poremećena u nekoliko vrsta tumora. U ovom je istraživanju metodom imunohistokemije istražena količina i lokalizacija proteina SOX2, SOX17 i CALCA u tkivu sjemenika ljudi s TGCT-om (N=38), kao i u tkivu sjemenika bez neoplastičnih promjena (N=20). Protein CALCA je pokazao veliki dijagnostički potencijal za otkrivanje koriokarcinoma, koji je najagresivniji tip TGCT-a. Koekspresija SOX17 i CALCA, a odsutstvo proteina SOX2, se pokazala potencijalnim biomarkerom u dijagnosticiranju neoplazije zametnih stanica in situ koja je preteča zloćudnih TGCT-a.
Abstract (english)
Testicular tumors are the most common type of tumors affecting men in their most reproductive ages, from 15 to 45 years. Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) are diagnosed in about 95 % of cases, making them the most common form of testicular tumors. As a very heterogeneus group of neoplasms, they are roughly divided into seminomas and nonseminomas, and often occur in the form of mixed germ cell tumors. The SOX2 and SOX17 genes are involved in the regulation of embryonic cell differentiation and they are used as tissue biomarkers in current diagnosis of embryonal carcinoma and seminoma. CALCA gene is a tumor suppressor gene whose expression is disrupted in several types of tumors. In this study, the amount and localization of SOX2, SOX17 and CALCA proteins were investigated by immunohistochemical method in testicular tissue of people with TGCT (N=38) and in testicular tissue without neoplastic changes (N=20). The CALCA protein has shown great diagnostic potential for detecting choriocarcinoma, which is the most aggressive type of TGCT. Coexpression of SOX17 and CALCA proteins, with the absence of SOX2 protein, may be used as a potential biomarkers in the diagnosis of germ cell neoplasia in situ considered as a precursor of malignant TGCTs.
