Do INI1 and E-cadherin Expression Loss Have Any Significance in Endometrial Carcinomas?

Öz:
Objective: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a highly heterogeneous malignancy in terms of morphology, clinical course, response to treatment and prognosis. This study aimed to investigate the loss of INI1 (SWI/SNF family member) and E-cadherin expression in type 1 and 2 ECs to elucidate the mechanisms that may elucidate on the differences in pathogenesis and prognosis between low- and high-grade histological types. Methods: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was applied for INI1 and E-cadherin in 72 patients who underwent hysterectomy for EC. Loss of INI1 and E-cadherin expression was compared between subjects with low- and high-grade EC. Results: A total of 63 patients had type 1 (endometrioid) and nine had type 2 (non-endometrioid) tumours. IHC staining revealed loss of INI1 expression in eight cases. While three of these cases were serous carcinoma, three were endometrioid carcinoma with villoglandular pattern and two were grade 3 endometrioid carcinoma. A significant difference was found in the loss of INI1 expression between low-grade (G1-G2) and highgrade (G3 endometrioid carcinoma and non-endometrioid carcinoma) tumours (p=0.004). Loss of expression was observed only in one case of dedifferentiated carcinoma in IHC staining performed for E-cadherin in 72 cases. Conclusion: A significantly greater loss of INI1 expression was observed in high-grade compared with low-grade endometrial carcinoma. This finding confirms that INI1 loss is a poor prognostic factor in these tumours as in other tumours reported in the literature and sheds light on the different pathogeneses seen in high-grade EC. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first systematic study to investigate INI1 loss in different types of endometrial carcinoma. Our results support the notion that SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex plays a role in the pathogenesis of high-grade EC and type 1 endometrioid carcinoma with villoglandular pattern.

Endometrial Karsinomlarda INI1 ve E-kadherin Ekspresyon Kaybının Önemi Var Mı?

Öz:
Amaç: Endometriyal karsinomlar (EK), morfoloji, klinik seyir, tedaviye yanıt ve prognoz açısından oldukça heterojen malignitelerdir. Bu çalışmada, düşük ve yüksek dereceli EK histolojik tipleri arasındaki patogenez ve prognozdaki farklılıklara ışık tutabilecek mekanizmaları aydınlatmak için tip 1 ve 2 EK’de INI1(SWI/SNF ailesi üyesi) ve E-kaderin ekspresyon kaybını araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Yöntemler: EK tanısıyla histerektomi yapılan 72 hastaya ait tümör dokularına INI1 ve E-kaderin immünohistokimya (IHK) boyamaları uygulandı. Düşük ve yüksek dereceli EK’li hastalar arasında INI1 ve E-kaderin ekspresyon kaybı karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Yetmiş iki hastanın 63’ü tip 1 (endometrioid) tümör ve 9’u tip 2 (endometrioid olmayan) karsinom tipindeydi. IHK boyama, sekiz olguda INI1 ekspresyonunda kayıp olduğunu gösterdi. Bu olguların üçü seröz karsinom iken, üçü villoglandüler paternli endometrioid karsinom ve ikisi grade 3 endometrioid karsinomdu. Düşük dereceli (G1-G2) ve yüksek dereceli (G3 endometrioid karsinom ve endometrioid-olmayan karsinomlar) tümörler arasında INI1 ekspresyon kaybı açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark saptandı (p=0,004). E-kadherin kaybı yalnızca dediferansiye karsinom tanılı bir olguda gözlendi. Sonuç: Yüksek dereceli EK’ler, düşük dereceliler ile karşılaştırıldığında INI1 ekspresyonunda anlamlı ölçüde kayıp gözlendi. Bu bulgu, INI1 kaybının, literatürde diğer tümörler için bildirilen olgularda olduğu gibi, EK’lerde kötü prognostik faktör olduğunu doğrulamakta ve yüksek dereceli EK’de görülen farklı patogeneze ışık tutmaktadır. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla çalışmamız farklı EK tiplerinde INI1 kaybını araştıran ilk sistematik çalışmadır. Sonuçlarımız, SWI/SNF kromatin yeniden şekillenme kompleksinin, yüksek dereceli EK ve villoglandüler paternli tip 1 endometrioid karsinomun patogenezinde rol oynadığını desteklemektedir
