Resumo
No presente estudo foram investigados os níveis de expressão gênica e protéica da anexina-1 (ANXA1/AnxA1) e galectina-1 (LGALS1/Gal-1) na carcinogênese do estômago e associações com infecção pela Helicobacter pylori e o genótipo de virulência bacteriano cagA+. A análise foi realizada em 40 biópsias de mucosa gástrica com gastrite crônica (CG), 20 de câncer gástrico (GA) e 10 de mucosa normal (C), pelas técnicas de qPCR para quantificar os níveis de RNAm; imuno-histoquímica para caracterizar a expressão protéica na mucosa gástrica, e PCR para diagnóstico molecular da H. pylori e cepa cagA+. O estudo mostrou resultados inéditos quanto à expressão desses genes em gastrite crônica, ainda sem descrições na literatura. Foi demonstrada expressão relativa elevada do mRNA de ANXA1 em 80% dos casos de GA (média de 4,38 + 4,77) e em 90% dos casos de CG (média de 4,26 + 2,03), sem diferença significante entre os grupos (p = 0,33). O gene LGALS1 apresentou expressão elevada em 60% dos casos GA (média de 2,44 + 3,26) e, expressão constitutiva na CG (média de 0,43 + 3,13), mostrando, portanto, diferença significante entre os grupos (p < 0,01). A imuno-histoquímica revelou que as proteínas AnxA1 e Gal-1 não são expressas na mucosa normal. Ao contrário, durante o processo inflamatório de CG, imunomarcação citoplasmática positiva para a AnxA1 foi observada na porção basal do epitélio e estroma e, para Gal-1 a expressão foi constatada na porção apical e borda estriada do epitélio além do estroma. No adenocarcinoma tipo intestinal foi observada expressão citoplasmática em toda extensão epitelial e estroma tanto para a AnxA1 quanto para a Gal-1. Por outro lado, no tipo difuso imunomarcação positiva também foi observada no núcleo e membrana plasmática...
In this study we investigated the levels of gene and protein expression of annexin-1 (ANXA1/Anxa1) and galectin-1 (LGALS1/Gal-1) in gastric carcinogenesis and associations with Helicobacter pylori infection and bacterial virulence genotype cagA+. The analysis was performed in 40 biopsies of gastric mucosa with chronic gastritis (CG), 20 with gastric cancer (GA) and 10 of normal mucosa (C), by the techniques of qPCR to quantify mRNA levels, immunohistochemistry to characterize the protein expression in gastric mucosa, and PCR for molecular diagnosis of H. pylori cagA+ strains. This is the first study regarding the expression of these genes in chronic gastritis. High ANXA1expression levels were demonstrated in 80% of GA cases (mean 4.38 + 4.77) and in 90% of GC cases (mean 4.26 + 2.03), with no significant difference between groups (p = 0.33). High LGALS1 gene expression was found in 60% of GA cases (average 2.44 + 3.26), and constitutive expression was found in CG (mean 0.43 + 3.13), showing therefore a significant difference between groups (p <0.01). Immunohistochemistry revealed that the proteins AnxA1 and Gal-1 are not expressed in normal mucosa. In contrast, during the inflammatory process of CG, positive cytoplasmic immunostaining for AnxA1 was observed in the basal epithelium and stroma, and Gal-1 expression was detected in the apical portion and striated border of the epithelium and stroma. In intestinal-type adenocarcinoma was observed cytoplasmic expression in all epithelial and stromal extension for both AnxA1 and Gal-1. On the other hand, in diffuse-type adenocarcinoma positive immunostaining was also observed in the nucleus and plasma membrane of both proteins. Infection by H. pylori showed no association with the expression of both genes, but the genotype cagA+ is associated with about 2.5 times... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
