Title in Portuguese
Expressão dos imunomarcadores de E-caderina e Caspase-3 em carcinoma espinocelular peniano em equinos e sua correlação com características clínicas e epidemiológicas
Keywords in Portuguese
Adesão celular
Apoptose
Neoplasia
Pênis
Abstract in Portuguese
As neoplasias são uma importante causa de morbidade e mortalidade em equinos, sendo o carcinoma espinocelular (CEC), também chamado de carcinoma de células escamosas, o tumor maligno genital mais comum na espécie e a neoplasia mais frequente em equídeos no Estado de São Paulo. As neoplasias frequentemente infiltram o corpo cavernoso e podem provocar metástases em linfonodos regionais, tendo, geralmente, prognóstico de reservado a ruim, devido à invasão local e recidiva. Diante da importância da doença, objetiva-se verificar se há diferença no padrão de expressão de imunomarcadores de apoptose e adesão celular, de acordo com o grau de diferenciação celular das neoplasias. Vinte amostras de CEC peniano de equinos provenientes do Serviço de Patologia Animal do Hospital Veterinário da Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia da Universidade de São Paulo foram analisadas histologicamente e classificadas de acordo com seu grau de diferenciação. Além disso, também foram submetidas à técnica de imuno-histoquímica, com os imunomarcadores Caspase-3 e E-caderina. Os dados clínicos dos animais foram coletados e analisados utilizando correlação de Kendall e o teste de Mann-Whitney. Verificou-se que há correlação positiva entre a expressão dos imunomarcadores e que não há correlação entre idade e grau de diferenciação da neoplasia, assim como não se encontrou diferença estatisticamente significativa na expressão dos imunomarcadores de acordo com o grau de diferenciação.

Abstract in English
Neoplasms are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in horses, and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), also called squamous cell carcinoma, is the most common malignant genital tumor in the species and the most frequent neoplasm in horses in the State of São Paulo. Neoplasms often infiltrate the corpora cavernosa and can cause metastases in regional lymph nodes, generally having a poor to poor prognosis, due to local invasion and recurrence. Given the importance of the disease, the objective is to verify whether there is a difference in the expression pattern of immunomarkers of apoptosis and cell adhesion, according to the degree of cell differentiation of the neoplasms. Twenty samples of equine penile SCC from the Animal Pathology Service of the Veterinary Hospital of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science of the University of São Paulo were analyzed histologically and classified according to their degree of differentiation. In addition, they were also submitted to the immunohistochemical technique, with the immunomarkers Caspase-3 and E-cadherin. The animals′ clinical data were collected and analyzed using Kendall′s correlation and the Mann-Whitney test. It was found that there is a positive correlation between the expression of immunomarkers and that there is no correlation between age and the degree of differentiation of the neoplasia, as well as no statistically significant difference was found in the expression of immunomarkers according to the degree of differentiation.
