Abstract

Adhesion molecules are complex protein and carbohydrate molecules found on the surface of a variety of cells. They are involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Adhesion molecules participate in leukocyte migration, lymphocyte evolution, endothel damage and inflammation. Their functions in tumor biology and metastasis are still investigated. The purpose of the present study was to investigate immunohistochemically the expression of the adhesion molecules CD44 and CD54 in pediatric Hodgkin's disease and its correlation with the clinicopathological parameters. Twenty two patients were included and both adhesion molecules were expressed in all cases, in tumoral and non-tumoral cells. Control group consisted of 5 tonsil and 5 lymph node material without neoplastic infiltration. No significant relationship between the CD44 and CD54 expression and the clinicopathological findings were found. In conclusion, the expression of CD44 and CD54 does not seem to be of significance in the diagnosis and prognosis of pediatric Hodgkin's disease.

Özet

Adezyon molekülleri, vücutta çok çeşitli hücrelerin yüzeyinde bulunan, hücrelerarası ve hücre-matriks etkileşimini sağlayan protein ve karbonhidrat yapısında moleküllerdir. Adezyon molekülleri lökosit migrasyonu, lenfosit gelişimi, endotel hasarı ve inflamasyonda rol oynamaktadır. Ayrıca tümör biyolojisi ve metastaz oluşumundaki fonksiyonları da araştırılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, çocukluk çağı Hodgkin hastalığında tümör dokusunda immünhistokimyasal olarak CD44 ve CD54 moleküllerinin varlığı araştırılmıştır. Yirmi iki pediatrik Hodgkin hastasında CD44, tüm olgularda tümör ve tümör dışı hücrelerde yaygın pozitif bulundu; CD54 ekspresyonu da benzer şekilde saptandı. Kontrol grubunda, tümöral olmayan beş tonsil ve beş adet lenf ganglionu seçildi. CD44 ve CD54 ekspresyonu ile klinikopatolojik özellikler açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmadı. Sonuç olarak, CD44 ve CD54 ekspresyonunun Hodgkin hastalığının tanısı ve prognozu açısından spesifik bir belirleyici olamayacağı düşünüldü.
