Abstract

Objectives: To determine whether COX-2, bcl-2 and neoangiogenesis are related to human prostate cancer relapse after definitive surgical treatment and progression toward androgen independence and to evaluate the association between the patterns of these tumoral biomarkers and other standard clinico-pathological parameters (such as Gleason score, PSA, TNM stage). Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed the records on 126 prostate cancer samples from patients treated at our University Hospital from 1995 to 2002. The 72 patients with clinically localized disease (group 1) had undergone radical prostatectomy. Another 54 patients (group 2) had metastatic androgen-independent disease. Archived material relating to the subjects was then immunostained for bcl-2, COX-2 and CD-31, using an anti-bcl-2 monoclonal primary antibody, an anti-COX-2 polyclonal rabbit antibody and an anti-CD-31 monoclonal mouse antibody to evaluate neoangiogenesis (MVD, microvessel density). Results: We found that bcl-2, COX-2 and MVD expression increased from group 1 to group 2. The intergroup difference was significant only for high MVD (P
