Abstract

An in-depth study of the biology of tumor growth will help to identify factors that allow us to understand the pathogenetic mechanisms of the development of ovarian cancer metastasis and progression, as well as to become a theoretical basis for developing new approaches to the treatment of this disease. The aim of this study was to determine immunohistochemical and endothelial criteria for ovarian cancer. The postoperative samples of ovarian tumor tissues were divided into 3 groups: comparison group - ovarian cancer; main group - borderline ovarian tumor; benign ovarian tumors. The study was conducted according to the FIGO 2009 classification. The International Histological Classification of WHO 2013 Female Genital Tumors was used for morphological characteristics. Level of growth factors - sVEGF-A was performed by ELISA using standard test systems (BenderMedSystem, Austria). IGC material studies were performed on serial paraffin sections using a standard method with murine monoclonal antibodies to p53 (clone D0-7. Dilution 1: 100. "Dako"). Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. was used as the detection system. Positive and negative control reactions were performed. The label index (MI) was used to evaluate p53 nuclear expression. WCIF ImageJ and Aperio Image Scope were used to estimate the number and degree of cell staining. Statistical analysis of the obtained data was performed using Statistica 6.0. The results of morphological studies of ovarian cancer showed that in our study patients with serous cancer predominated - 78.5%. The second most frequently diagnosed cancer was undifferentiated. In the second stage of our study, we conducted a comparative analysis of the concentration of p53 in the serum and tissue of patients in the study groups, which showed the existence of significant differences. In patients of the POY and DOY groups, both total and local p53 protein activity were significantly higher than in the comparison group, p <0.05. There was a positive correlation between p53 protein activity in serum and ovarian tissue. Serum VEGF A scores were statistically significantly correlated with the disease stage: Spearman rank correlation coefficient rho = 0.30; 95% CI = 0.02 - 0.536, p <0.05. There were no correlations with patients' age, histological subtype, and degree of tumor differentiation. Considering the results of our study, we can conclude that the criterion-important indicators of QA are serum levels of p53 and the index of serum VEGF A, which is confirmed by the results of ROC analysis p = 0.0026, and indicates a good informativeness of the method.
