Avaliação da expressão de citoqueratinas na citologia esfoliativa da mucosa bucal de pacientes fumantes

The present study compared the expression of cytokeratins CK6, CK16 and CK19 and pan-cytokeratin (PAN) in oral mucosa cells between smokers and nonsmokers in order to determine the stage of cell differentiation and to consequently infer proliferative activity and expressions indicative of a potential for malignant differentiation. Thirty smokers and 30 non-smokers seen at the clinics of FOSJC-UNESP were screened. Smears were obtained from the left lateral border of the tongue with a cytobrush and slides were processed for immunohistochemistry using the antibodies reported Conventional microscopy was used for qualitative analysis. The results were analyzed statistically by the Z test, Fisher's exact test and comparison of two proportions (plus-4 confidence interval method). The expression of CK6 (p=0.002), CK16 (p=0.003), CK19 (p=0.0001) and PAN (p=0.008) was higher in oral mucosa smears from smokers compared to non- smokers. ln conclusion, increased epithelial proliferation is observed in the oral mucosa of smokers as demonstrated by the increased expression of CK6 and CKJ6, and these cells present alterations in epithelial maturation

M-CSF Priming of Osteoclast Precursors Can Cause Osteoclastogenesis-Insensitivity, Which Can be Prevented and Overcome on Bone

Osteoclasts and macrophages share progenitors that must receive decisive lineage signals driving them into their respective differentiation routes. Macrophage colony stimulation factor M-CSF is a common factor; bone is likely the stimulus for osteoclast differentiation. To elucidate the effect of both, shared mouse bone marrow precursor myeloid blast was pre-cultured with M-CSF on plastic and on bone. M-CSF priming prior to stimulation with M-CSF and osteoclast differentiation factor RANKL resulted in a complete loss of osteoclastogenic potential without bone. Such M-CSF primed cells expressed the receptor RANK, but lacked the crucial osteoclastogenic transcription factor NFATc1. This coincided with a steeply decreased expression of osteoclast genes TRACP and DC-STAMP, but an increased expression of the macrophage markers F4/80 and CD11b. Compellingly, M-CSF priming on bone accelerated the osteoclastogenic potential: M-CSF primed cells that had received only one day M-CSF and RANKL and were grown on bone already expressed an array of genes that are associated with osteoclast differentiation and these cells differentiated into osteoclasts within 2 days. Osteoclastogenesis-insensitive precursors grown in the absence of bone regained their osteoclastogenic potential when transferred to bone. This implies that adhesion to bone dictates the fate of osteoclast precursors. Common macrophage-osteoclast precursors may become insensitive to differentiate into osteoclasts and regain osteoclastogenesis when bound to bone or when in the vicinity of bone. J. Cell.

Key participants of the tumor microenvironment of the prostate: An approach of the structural dynamic of cellular elements and extracellular matrix components during epithelial-stromal transition

Cancer is a multistep process that begins with the transformation of normal epithelial cells and continues with tumor growth, stromal invasion and metastasis. The remodeling of the peritumoral environment is decisive for the onset of tumor invasiveness. This event is dependent on epithelial–stromal interactions, degradation of extracellular matrix components and reorganization of fibrillar components. Our research group has studied in a new proposed rodent model the participation of cellular and molecular components in the prostate microenvironment that contributes to cancer progression. Our group adopted the gerbil Meriones unguiculatus as an alternative experimental model for prostate cancer study. This model has presented significant responses to hormonal treatments and to development of spontaneous and induced neoplasias. The data obtained indicate reorganization of type I collagen fibers and reticular fibers, synthesis of new components such as tenascin and proteoglycans, degradation of basement membrane components and elastic fibers and increased expression of metalloproteinases. Fibroblasts that border the region, apparently participate in the stromal reaction. The roles of each of these events, as well as some signaling molecules, participants of neoplastic progression and factors that promote genetic reprogramming during epithelial–stromal transition are also discussed.
