Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:To investigate protein expression and genetic aberrations of p53 and HER-2 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) as well as possible association of p53 and HER-2 abnormalities with the tumor behavior of RCC. METHODS:Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue blocks from 70 patients with RCC were studied. Protein expression of p53 and HER-2 was assessed immunohistochemically. Following deoxyribonucleic acid extraction from the paraffin sections using a microdissection technique, p53 gene mutations within exons 5 to 8 were examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) single-strand conformation polymorphism and HER-2 gene amplification by a differential PCR. RESULTS:Of the 70 RCCs, 16 (22.9%) showed protein expression of p53, with 7 (10%) demonstrating mutations within exons 5 to 7. Additionally, 28 RCCs (40%) displayed protein expression of HER-2, with 12 (17.1%) demonstrating gene amplification. All cases showing p53 mutations or HER-2 amplification represented protein expression of p53 or HER-2, respectively. No cases with negative immunostaining for p53 or HER-2 protein displayed positive results at gene level. Statistical analysis revealed a close relationship between p53 protein expression and the tumor grade, as well as a significant association of HER-2 protein expression and gene amplification with the tumor stage of RCC. CONCLUSIONS:Our observations suggest that the abnormalities of p53 and HER-2 may be involved in the pathogenesis of RCC and that other mechanisms leading to protein expression of p53 and HER-2 may coexist within a single tumor in addition to the genetic aberrations.
