Abstract Background A possible relation between Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and colorectal cancer (CRC) has been widely explored with an unclear role yet speculated. Aim The study aimed at detecting HCMV UL55 gene, immediate early and early (IE/E) proteins in colorectal tumor tissues and adjacent non neoplastic tissues (ANNT). Also, it aimed to correlate HCMV presence with CRC clinicopathological features. Subjects and methods A prospective study of 50 HCMV seropositive patients with resectable CRC were enrolled in the study. Demographic, clinical, and radiological findings were recorded. Pathological assessment was done. Paired CRC tumorous and ANNT were examined for HCMV UL55 by PCR and for IE/ E proteins by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Results 70% of CRC patients enrolled were females and 36% were elderly (> 60y). Adenocarcinoma was the prevalent histopathological type (92%) with Grade 2, higher stages, and nodal involvement accounting for (64%, 64% and 56%) respectively. HCMV detection was significantly higher in tumoral tissue versus ANNT by PCR and IHC (P |
