Characteristics of Nasal Inverted Papilloma and Its Malignant Transformation: A Study of Cell Proliferation and Programmed Cell Death

Abstract: We concluded that inhibition of apoptosis could be an early sign of IP undergoing malignant transformation. A high proliferative rate was a characteristic of IP-associated malignant diseases.

“…Our study did not reveal statistically significant differences of Bcl-2 immunoexpression between sinonasal IPs and control group. Surprising results were provided by Fan et al [40] who found no differences regarding immunoexpression of Bcl-2 among SNC, sinonasal IP and sinonasal IP with dysplasia. In our study the high, nuclear survivin immunoexpression in SNC and sinonasal IP tissues was correlated with high immunoexpression of Bcl-2 oncoprotein.…”

“…Fan et al [12] proposed programmed cell death theory in the causation of malignant transformation and they concluded that inhibition of apoptosis could be an early sign of inverted papilloma undergoing malignant transformation. A high proliferative rate was a characteristic of inverted papilloma-associated malignant diseases [16]. A group of Chinese investigator investigated the role of fascin which may play a role in the formation of inverted papilloma.…”

“…IP contains a significantly higher cell population with proliferative activity by comparison with normal sinonasal and inflammatory polyp epithelia, showing a significant correlation between Topoisomerase II-alpha (topoII-alpha) and Ki67 expression, and indicating that topoII-alpha could be a independent prognostic factor for a putative malignant transformation [176, 177]. Immunohistochemical staining of inverted sinonasal papillomas for p53 [115, 175, 178187] and Ki67 can give useful information concerning the existence of synchronous carcinoma [173, 188] and, in case of high Ki67, a hint toward possible recurrence [136, 177, 189, 190, 190–193]. A study demonstrated ectopic production of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin in cases of inverted papilloma of the nose [194].…”
