description Background. Current immunohistochemical identification of prognostic markers of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma needs to be improved, as it helps to estimate the rate of invasion and innidiation, and consequently give an opportunity to predict the individual behavior of tumor in every case. Objective. The purpose of the work was to investigate the proliferative and apoptotic activity of invasive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and adenocarcinoma without invasion with the help of immunocytochemical markers. Methods. Operational materials of pancreato-duodenal resections from 80 patients with invasive and non-invasive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma were used to examine the expression of Кі-67, р53, р16, р21 and Caspase-3 immunocytochemical markers. Results. Ductal adenocarcinoma is characterized by the low level of proliferation marker Кі-67 expression. An invasive ductal adenocarcinoma differs from an adenocarcinoma without invasion by the significantly higher level of nuclear expression of Кі-67 and р53 and cytoplasmic expression of caspase-3 by the atypical epithelium of glands at the identically high level of р21WAF1 and low level of р16INK4A expression. Conclusion. 1. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma without invasion is distinguished by the prominent tissue-cellular atypism, presence of rich desmoplastic stroma, low level of nuclear expression of Кі-67 (1,42±0,06 point) by the epithelium of malignant ductular cells, tubular and glandular structures, presence of pathological mitoses and absence of perineural invasion loci and invasion of the tumor into surrounding organs. 2. The invasion of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is diagnosed much more often, it differs from an adenocarcinoma without invasion by its expansion on perineural spaces and surrounding organs, and also by the significantly higher level of nuclear expression of Кі-67 and р53 and cytoplasmic expression of caspase-3 in cancer cells at the identically high level of р21WAF1 and low level of р16INK4A expression. 3. The invasion zone of ductal adenocarcinoma to duodenum is characterized by moderate proliferative activity of tumor cells (2,24±0,26 point), lower, than in the main mass of malignant tumor. At the same time, levels of р53 (30,06±4,2%) and caspase-3 expression in these zones substantially were not differ (81,2±2,8%) in atypical cells from expression of these markers in the main tumor mass of invasive adenocarcinoma.
