| Popis: | e17530 Background: It is believed that hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α) hyperactivity promotes synthesis of protective factors and increases bacterial growth-inhibitory activity, provides enhancement methods of the congenital immune response to microbial infection. Methods: Lactoferrin and α-defensin were detected in saliva of 41 patients with oral mucosa (OM) cancer (T2N0-2M0) before a comprehensive treatment; enzyme immunoassay (EIA) method was used. A level of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α) was evaluated by EIA method in tumor tissues after surgical treatment. The patients were divided into two groups according to an after-surgery period: the main group (n = 16) had after-surgery suppurative complications. An after-surgery period proceeded without infectious complications in patients of a control group (n = 25). Results: It was found that Lactoferrin content in saliva statistically was significantly higher by 36,4% (p < 0,05) (3,0±0,24 µg/ml against 2,2±0,19 µg/ml) if to draw a comparison between the main group and the control group with respect to development of suppurative complications and absence of a inter-group difference according to α-defensin concentration (4,1±0,35 pg/ml against 3,8±0,19 pg/ml). HIF-1α expression index in the main group (8,4±0,79 CU/mg protein in a well) exceeded this index by 18,3% (p < 0,05) in the control group (7,1±0,79 CU/mg protein). A positive correlation between HIF-1α expression and Lactoferrin content (R = 0,53 at р = 0,0001) was detected in patients with OM cancer. Conclusions: Detected HIF-1α hyperexpression in tumor tissues and Lactoferrin content in saliva, as well as their interaction allows suggesting significance of these factors for their progression prediction in patients with OM cancer in case of after-surgery suppurative complications. |
