Resumo
O mastocitoma é a neoplasia cutânea de maior incidência nos cães e embora existam diversos fatores prognósticos, o comportamento clínico e biológico altamente variável desta neoplasia, faz como que a previsão da evolução e a escolha do melhor tratamento a ser utilizado sejam ainda um desafio. Desta forma, a utilização de técnicas moleculares que avaliam uma grande quantidade de genes envolvidos no processo neoplásico, pode ser uma ferramenta importante na determinação do prognóstico e até mesmo na eleição de genes candidatos a terapia alvo molecular. Uma das formas de se identificar os genes associados ao desenvolvimento ou a progressão tumoral é a investigação das alterações numéricas e estruturais em DNA isolado de células neoplásicas através da técnica de CGHarray (hibridação genômica comparativa baseada em arrays). Este estudo foi delineado com o objetivo de comparar as alterações do número de cópias gênômicas (ganhos/perdas) em mastocitomas cutâneos caninos de animais que sobreviveram um período menor que seis meses (SV<6), com aqueles com sobrevida superior a um ano (SV>12). Para isto foram selecionados 10 cães com mastocitoma cutâneo. A técnica de CGHarray foi utilizada em 4 mastocitomas do grupo SV>12 e em 6 do grupo SV<6. Os DNAs genômicos foram extraídos e os dados de alterações nos números de cópias de DNA foram gerados utilizando-se a plataforma Canine Genome CGH Microarray 4x180. A análise dos dados foi realizada utilizando o programa Nexusversion 5.0. Os resultados mostraram a média de 55,5 alterações no numero de cópias (CNA) nos casos avaliados. Os mastocitomas do grupo SV>12 apresentaram média de CNA de 11,25, enquanto que os tumores do grupo SV<6 apresentaram média de 85,0 CNA. No grupo SV<6 houve 75 genes caracterizados que...
Mast cell tumours are the most common cutaneous malignant tumours in the dogs. Although there are several prognostic factors, the clinical and biological behavior of this tumor is highly variable, making the choice of the best treatment to be used, a challenge. Thus, the use of molecular techniques to evaluate a large number of genes involved in the neoplastic process, as it can be a valuable tool in determining prognosis and the election of candidate genes to molecular targeted therapy in the future. One way to identify the genes associated with the development or tumor progression is the investigation of numerical and structural changes in DNA isolated from tumor cells using the technique of CGHarray (comparative genomic hybridization). This study was designed in order to compare changes in the number of gene copies (gains / losses) in canine cutaneous mast cell tumors of animals that survived a period less than six months (SV <6) to those with a higher survival, more than one year (SV> 12). For this, 10 animals were selected. The CGH array technique was used in 4 mast cell tumor from group SV> 12 and six animals from group SV <6. Genomic DNA was extracted and the data for changes in copy number of DNA were generated using the platform Canine Genome CGH Microarray 4x180 (ID-252 552 - Agilent). Data analysis was performed using the Nexus program version 5.0 (Biodiscovery). We were detected an mean of 55.5 changes in copy number (CNA) in the cases evaluated. The group SV> 12 present an average of 11.25 CNA while the SV<6 group present a mean of 85.0 CNA. In group SV <6 there were 75 genes that had characterized gain and 16 genes that showed copy number loss. The group SV> 12 show 24 genes with copy number gain and there were no loss in this group. The mast cell tumors with a worse... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
