Ki67 and p53 in gastrointestinal stromal tumors - GIST

Abstract: -Context -Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common mesenchymal tumor. Cellular proliferation and apoptosis is gaining importance for predicting prognosis in several cancers. Objective -To investigate the Ki67 and p53 immunostaining in GISTs. Methods -Specimens from 40 patients with GIST were assessed for immunohistochemical expression of Ki67 and p53. The tumors were divided according the risk of recurrence in two groups: I with high or intermediate risk and; II with low or very low risk. Resul… Show more

“…Our meta-analysis showed that p53 expression appeared more often in recurred or metastasized GIST (malignant group) than in tumors with disease-free follow-up (benign group). Furthermore, p53 expression was significantly associated with the established prognostic criteria (NIH system), and was consistent with most previous GIST studies (6,(11)(12)(13)15,(16)(17)(18)(19). NIH I+H showed more positivity with p53 than NIH VL+L tumors.…”

“…A total of 19 publications met the inclusion criteria (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24). The studies by Chou et al, Padilla et al, Romeo et al and Kwon et al were excluded due to insufficient information to calculate an OR (25)(26)(27)(28), and the study by Sakurai et al was also excluded since they used telomerase activity as the criteria for measuring the malignant risk of GIST (29).…”

“…Sheikh et al (24) evaluated the expression of Ki-67 in colorectal adenomas and observed an invariably stronger expression in areas with higher dysplasia. In a study on p53 and Ki-67 in gastrointestinal stromal tumors, Neves et al (16) found higher values of Ki-67 in patients with tumors of medium and high risk.…”

“…In fact, the proliferative activity of cells in the colorectal mucosa and throughout the gastrointestinal tract is constant, but increases under special circumstances, such as in inflammatory and neoplastic conditions (15,16,24,25) . In a study of patients with ulcerative colitis, Shinozaki et al (25) found a higher expression of Ki-67 in areas of dysplastic mucosa compared with areas without dysplasia.…”

“…27,28 It is a classical concern of pathologists to report a parameter related with tumour proliferation index and Ki67-MIB1 as a nuclear proliferation associated antigen expressed in cell cycle (G1,S,G2 and M) but not in the resting phase, G0, which provides information about the portion of active cells in the cell cycle. 37,38 Ki-67 expression by immunohistochemistry can be a prognostic marker allowing the prediction of post-operative survival in different types of cancer. High expression of Ki-67 (cut-off above 10) is associated with worse survival in adenocarcinomas.…”
