Myeloperoxidase-Positive Cell Infiltration in Colorectal Carcinogenesis as Indicator of Colorectal Cancer Risk

Abstract: Colorectal mucosa is targeted by toxic agents, which can initiate or promote colon cancer. The mechanism of damage might be a focal irritation with loss of normal epithelial cell barrier function. Genetic alterations in tumors may also affect host inflammatory response. The aim of this study was to define the extent of inflammation in colorectal mucosa, along colorectal carcinogenesis, and in microsatellite stable and unstable colorectal carcinomas. We collected 103 samples of normal colorectal mucosa from 65 … Show more

“…Upon the invasion of bacteria, the first response is the infiltration of neutrophils and mononuclear cells in local tissue. Following the accumulation of neutrophils and mononuclear cells, the levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in the local tissue are increased (11). MPO is also one of the parameters in IBD modeling studies (12).…”

“…All patients had normal colonoscopy. Twenty-two MAs were also identified in 6 patients, and removed after operation for colorectal cancer on surgical specimens; the precise localization of the lesion was made staining the resected mucosa with a 0.1% methylene-blue solution in saline, and observing it under a dissecting microscope in order to take and process only the fields of the lesion, as previously described (16,19). All MAs, defined as dysplastic aberrant crypt foci at histology were referred to as MAs.…”

“…Colorectal cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality in Western countries, and it develops mainly from adenomatous polyps and shows a morphological and genetic progression through an adenoma-carcinoma sequence, both in hereditary and in sporadic colorectal cancer (15 genetic and epigenetic alterations (16)(17)(18)(19). The purpose of the present study was two-fold: (i) to determine whether BCL6 is expressed during malignant transformation of the large bowel and (ii) to assess whether, and to what extent, BCL6 immunoreactivity is related to the different stages of neoplastic progression.…”
