چکیده
Objective : to study the association between the histological grading of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN I, CIN II and CIN III) and the immunohistochemical expression for p16ink4a, hTert and Ki67, as well as to evaluate the relationship of these markers with the risk of recurrence after surgical treatment. Methods : we studied a historical cohort of 94 women with intraepithelial lesions CIN I (low grade), CIN II and CIN III (high grades) submitted to conization or electrosurgical excision of the transformation zone. We evaluated all surgical specimens for immunohistochemical expression of p16ink4a, hTert and Ki67. Results : the mean age was 38.2 years; p16ink4a was absent in most CIN I cases. In patients with CIN II or I/II (association of low and high-grade lesions), we observed p16ink4a ≤10%. In patients with CIN III, we found a higher expression frequency of p16ink4a >50%. In CIN I, the majority had Ki67≤10% and low frequency of Ki67>50%. In the CIN III category, there were fewer patients with Ki67≤10%, and Ki67 was absent in most patients of CIN II and III groups. There was no association between hTert expression and histologic grade. There were no statistically significant differences between the expression of the markers in patients with and without recurrence. Conclusion : there was a statistically significant association of p16ink4a and Ki67 with histological grade. The markers' expression, as for disease recurrence, was not statistically significant in the period evaluated. Objetivo: estudar a associação entre a graduação histológica das neoplasias intraepiteliais cervicais (NIC I, NIC II e NIC III) e a expressão imuno-histoquímica para p16ink4a, hTert e Ki67, assim como, avaliar a relação destes marcadores com o risco de recorrência após tratamento cirúrgico. Métodos: estudo de coorte histórica de 94 mulheres portadoras de lesões intraepiteliais NIC I (baixo grau), NIC II e NIC III (altos graus), submetidas à conização ou à excisão eletrocirúrgica da zona de transformação. Todas as peças cirúrgicas foram avaliadas quanto à expressão imuno-histoquímica para p16ink4a, hTert e Ki67. Resultados: a média de idade das pacientes foi 38,2 anos. Nas pacientes NIC I, a p16ink4a estava ausente na maioria dos casos; nas pacientes NIC II ou I/II (associação de lesões de baixo e alto graus), observou-se frequência de p16ink4a≤10%. Nas pacientes NIC III, observou-se maior frequência de expressão de p16ink4a>50%. Na categoria NIC I, a maioria apresentava Ki67≤10% e baixa frequência de Ki67>50%. Na categoria NIC III houve menor número de pacientes com Ki67≤10%, sendo que a maior parte das pacientes tinha Ki67 ausente nos grupos NIC II e III. Não houve associação entre a expressão do marcador imuno-histoquímico hTert e a graduação histológica. Não houve diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre as expressões dos marcadores em pacientes com e sem recorrência. Conclusão: houve associação estatisticamente significativa apenas de p16ink4a e Ki67 com a graduação histológica. A expressão dos marcadores em relação à recorrência da doença não foi estatisticamente significativa no período avaliado.

Evaluation of Ki67, p16 and CK17 Markers in Differentiating Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia and Benign Lesions
Background: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is a premalignant lesion capable of progressing to cervical cancer. Despite the existing well-defined criteria, the histomorphologic diagnosis is subject to high rates of discordance among pathologists. The aim of this study was to evaluate Ki-67 (MIB-1), CK17 and p16 INK4a (p16) markers by immunohistochemical methods in differentiating CIN f...
متن کاملComparative study of the expression of cellular cycle proteins in cervical intraepithelial lesions.
Interaction of human papilloma virus oncoproteins E6 and E7 with cell cycle proteins leads to disturbances of the cell cycle mechanism and subsequent alteration in the expression of some proteins, such as p16INK4a, cyclin D1, p53 and KI67. In this study, we compared alterations in the expression of these proteins during several stages of intraepithelial cervical carcinogenesis. Accordingly, an ...
