Association between expression of transforming growth factor-alpha and progression of hepatocellular foci to neoplasms.

Abstract:

:Hepatocarcinogenesis was initiated in rats with a single dose of either of two chemical mutagens--benzo[a]pyrene diolepoxide I and methyl(acetoxymethyl)nitrosamine--administered 15 h after partial hepatectomy. The development of hepatocellular foci and neoplasms was then promoted with dietary phenobarbital given for 45 or 62 weeks. Formalin-fixed tissue specimens that contained hepatic neoplasms and altered hepatocellular foci were screened for expression of the oncodevelopmental marker glutathione-S-transferase (placental form) (GSTP) and transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) using immunohistochemistry. All (100%) hepatocellular carcinomas expressed both GSTP and TGF-alpha, as did most hepatocellular adenomas (greater than 80%). However, quantitative stereologic analysis of treated and control livers revealed that GSTP-positive foci were 10-30 times more frequent than TGF-alpha-positive foci. Foci with homogeneous expression of GSTP generally displayed heterogeneous expression of TGF-alpha with reaction product most prominent at their peripheries. Less frequently homogeneous TGF-alpha-positive foci were seen within GSTP-positive foci. The average volumes of those GSTP-positive foci that also expressed TGF-alpha were significantly greater than those of the entire sets of GSTP-positive foci. These results suggest that expression of TGF-alpha may distinguish a subset of GSTP-positive foci that have a growth advantage and increased probability of progression to neoplasia.
