| description | Thyroid cancer has been related to many environmental, genetic, and viral factors. Human Papilloma Viruses (HPV) are epitheliotropic viruses infecting cutaneous and mucosal tissues, leading to a variety of benign and malignant tumors. The p73-gene expresses two important isoforms from the N-terminal end with two opposite activities in the regulation of cell fate. The present study aimed to assess the histopathological expression of tissues from thyroid cancers in relation to the over-expression of the p73 gene with HPV 16/18 infection. A total of 116 thyroid tissues were examined for HPV 16/18-DNA and P73-gene protein expression. The samples belonged to 36 patients diagnosed with thyroid carcinoma, 40 thyroid adenoma tissues blocks, and 40 apparently normal thyroid tissues. The detection of HPV 16/18-DNA was performed by in situ hybridization (ISH), whereas P73 gene expression was carried out by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The HPV16/18 DNA-ISH reactions in thyroid cancers were found in 72.2% tissues, 35% HPV16/18- positivity was detected in the thyroid adenoma tissues group, and 27.5% of healthy thyroid tissues revealed ISH reactions. Statistically, the difference of the HPV16/18 in thyroid cancers and control was highly significant. The p73 was detected in 66.7% and 57.5% of thyroid cancer and adenoma thyroid tissues, respectively, while 45% of the examined healthy thyroid tissues revealed IHC-reactions. The difference between the p73-protein expression percentages detected in tissues of thyroid tumors and the control group was non statistically significant. The presence of HPV16/18, as well as an over-expressed p73-gene, in thyroid cancer patients, suggests that the virus, as well as this protein, may play an etiologic role in thyroid carcinogenesis. |
