Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The ai m of the study is to determine VEGF, EGFR and TGF- α with the immunohistochemical staining in placenta biopsies of patients with preeclampsia. Design: Prospective case control study. MATERIALS-METHODS: Biopsies from the placenta were obtained from ten patients with preeclapmsia and ten patients of control group during the cesarean section. Placenta biopsies were examined for VEGF, EGF-R and TGF- α distribution with avidin-biotinperoxidase immunohistochemistry. The staining intensities were graded semi-quantitatively by the two histologists who were blinded to the groups and the H-score was calculated by light microscopic examination. RESULTS: The VEGF, EGFR and TGF- α expression was significantly higher in placenta biopsies of preeclamptic patient compared to controls (271.2±22.65 versus 201.9±12.33, p=0.000; 186.3±4.98 versus 150.3±5.7, p=0.000; 185.1±7.48 versus 169.2±6.19, p=0.000; respectively). Conclus ion: Immunos taining of VEGF, EGF-R and TGF- α is signif icantly higher i n plac enta biopsi es in patie nts with preeclampsia.

Özet

AMAÇ: Preekl amptik hastaların plasentalarında, immünohistokimyasal boyama yöntemi ile, vasküler endotelial büyüme faktörü (VEGF), ep idermal büyüme faktörü recept örü (EGF-R) ve transforming büyüme faktörü alfa’nın (TGF-α) araştırılması. Planlama: Prospektif vaka kontrol çalışması. GEREÇ-YÖNTEM: Çalışma grubuna 10 preeklamptik vaka ve kontrol grubuna da 10 normal gebelik vakası dahil edildi. Vakalardan sezaryen doğum esnasında plasenta biyopsileri alındı. Biyopsi örneklerinde, avidin-biotin-peroksidaz immünohistokimyasal yöntem ile ışık mikroskopu altında, VEGF, EGF-R ve TGF-α dağılımı araştırıldı. Boyanma yoğunluğu semikantitatif olarak derecelendirildi ve grupları bilmeyen 2 histolog tarafından H-skorları hesaplandı. SONUÇLAR: Preekl amptik hastaların plasentalarında VEGF, EGF-R ve TGF-α ekspresyonu anlamlı olarak daha yüksek bulundu (sırasıyla; 271.2±22.65 versus 201.9±12.33, p=0.000; 186.3±4.98 versus 150.3±5.7, p=0.000; 185.1±7.48 versus 169.2±6.19,p=0.000). YORUM: Preeklamptik hastaların plasentalarında VEGF, EGF-R ve TGF-Éø ekspresyonu anlamlı olarak yüksekdir.
