摘要

This work aims at assessment of factors contributing to cell proliferation in relation to histopathologic diagnosis and clinical outcome of 90 brain tumour cases from Egypt. Cases were taken prospectively from the Neurosurgery Department of Mansoura University Hospitals, Egypt. Their median age was 46 years and their sex included 42 (46.7%) males and 48 (53.3%) females. Of these cases, 14 cases (15.6%) had an age <20 years. Brain biopsy samples were processed for histopathologic examination in addition to flow cytometeryic analysis of DNA ploidy pattern, apoptosis, p53 and Bcl2 expressions. Meningeal tumors were most frequent (37.8%) followed by astrocytic tumors (26.7%), sellar tumors (12.2%) while the neuroblastic tumors were detected in 10% of cases. Females were more affected by meningiomas and pituitary adenomas whereas males were more affected by astrocytic tumors. Older cases were affected mostly by meningeal and astrocytic tumors while the younger ones were more affected by neuroblastic tumors. Malignant tumors showed significant increased levels of mutant p53 expression, S phase of both diploid and aneuoploid cells than benign ones (P<0.05). On follow up, most of the cases affected with meningeal tumors had become symptom free while recurrence and death were mostly observed in astrocytic tumors. Significant increased expression of mutant p53 was also observed among recurrent cases (p<0.05) than cases that become free of symptoms. These results shows that cell cycle markers in addition to histopathology can help in predicting prognosis of brain tumours with a potential impact on management plan. Introduction The most common disease process to affect brain cells is neoplasia or tumor formation resulting in tumor of glia (glioma), meningeal cells (meningiomas), Schwann cells (schwannomas) and immune system cells (lymphomas). In children, brain tumor is the second most common form of cancer, surpassed only by leukemia. Unfortunately, many brain tumors are currently incurable. The majority of adult gliomas, for instance, is resistant to therapy and often causes death within a few years. Meningiomas and schwannomas on the other hand, are generally benign and can be treated by surgical resection. However, the removal of benign tumors from deep regions of the brain may carry considerable risk to the patient, and therefore some meningiomas or schwannomas may not be curable (1). Most brain tumors occur in otherwise normal adults; that is, in people without a family history of brain tumors and without a history of exposure to an environmental toxin as smoking, or exposure to head injury, electric wires, and drugs including medications during pregnancy (2).Cells reproduce by doubling their constituents, followed by division. The sum of the cell activities that is essential for their reproduction is defined as the cell cycle(3). The cell cycle is composed of major phases. G1 phase is the time gap between the end of previous mitosis and start of DNA synthesis. It is the most variable period in the cycle. During this phase, the cell may enter in a resting state called G0 state. In some tissues that do not divide, such as nerve cells and skeletal muscles and those which rarely divide as lymphocytes, the DNA assay indicates that its bulk is in G1 period only thus showing diploid DNA content. S-phase is the most constant period of the cycle. It lasts about 7 hours. During this phase the DNA mass increases in size and amount till it reaches double the basic amount in G1 phase ending with tetraploid cell (4c). G2 phase is relatively of short period (4 hours) in which cells having double the amount of DNA (4c) become ready for division. M-phase or mitosis phase is the shortest phase of the cell cycle it takes nearly one hour. It is the final and microscopically visible stage of an underlying alteration that has occurred at molecular as well as biochemical levels. The essential features of this stage is the equal morphologic distribution o
