Expressão de neurotrofinas e de seus receptores no osteossarcoma primário.

Abstract: RESUMO Objetivo: determinar a expressão de neurotrofinas e seus receptores tirosina quinases em pacientes com osteossarcoma (OS) e sua correlação com desfechos clínicos. Métodos: biópsias de tumores primários de pacientes com OS tratados em uma única instituição, consecutivamente, entre 2002 e 2015, foram analisados através de imuno-histoquímica para expressão de receptores de tirosina quinase A e B (TrKA e TrKB), fator de crescimento neural (NGF) e fator neurotrófico derivado do cérebro (BDNF). De forma ind… Show more

“…The cause of this type of tumor has so far not been identified, but hormonal changes typical of adolescence due to growth may be related to the development of osteosarcoma in this age group. Osteosarcoma accounts for 3-5% of all childhood and adolescent cancers, and is more common in boys (1,13) . The data on the type of tumor, following the International Classification of Childhood Cancer (ICCC), showed that neoplasms in the age groups of 10 to 14 years and 15 to 19 years old fit mainly in group VIII -Malignant bone tumors (2,14) .…”

“…Pulmonary micrometastases are common in diagnosis in most cases of osteosarcoma. This is a very aggressive type of cancer, especially when associated with pulmonary metastasis; the survival rate for patients with pulmonary metastasis after aggressive treatment is five years (13,(15)(16) .…”

“…Stimulation of proliferation by application of exogenous growth factors is controversially discussed since Carragee et al reported concerns regarding tumor formation in association with the usage of the growth factor bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) in spine surgery [ 10 ]. BDNF is also expressed in tumors, e.g., osteosarcoma [ 11 ], and stimulates cancer growth and formation of metastasis through binding to TrκB as shown for breast cancer [ 12 ]. Thus, BDNF might also hold the risk of increasing cancer and other off target lateral effects.…”
