Apoptosis in epithelial ovarian tumours Prognostic significance of clinical and histopathologic factors and its association with the immunohistochemical expression of apoptotic regulatory proteins (p53, bcl-2 and bax)

The objective was to establish the importance of apoptosis-related genes and the apoptotic index (AI) as prognostic factors in patients with epithelial ovarian tumours. Tumour specimens from 130 epithelial ovarian tumours were examined for expression of p53, bcl-2 and bax proteins. The apoptotic ind...

description The objective was to establish the importance of apoptosis-related genes and the apoptotic index (AI) as prognostic factors in patients with epithelial ovarian tumours. Tumour specimens from 130 epithelial ovarian tumours were examined for expression of p53, bcl-2 and bax proteins. The apoptotic index was evaluated by modified terminal deoxynucleotide-transferase-mediated digoxigenin triphosphate-biotin nick end-labelling (TUNEL) methods and by haematoxylin-eosin (H-E) staining. Other clinical and histopathological variables were also analysed. Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS 10.0 package. The apoptotic index detected by H-E and enzymatic assay was high in the majority of carcinomas (serous, endometrioid and clear cell (p=0.001). In the univariate survival analysis, high apoptotic index, high p53 and low bcl-2 expression, significantly correlated with shorter survival and shorter disease-free periods (p

Our results indicate that the apoptotic index and p53 nuclear accumulation are independent predictive factors of recurrence and short survival.
