Sažetak

In prostate adenocarcinoma, both tumorous stroma and epithelium have important
role in tumor progression. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF- β) is a promotor in advanced
stages of prostate cancer. Matrix Metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), the endopeptidase that degrades extracellular
matrix is considered to be overexpressed in prostatic carcinoma related to its growth and
aggressiveness. Therefore, the aim was to analyze the expression of proteins TGF- β and MMP2 between
both epithelium and stroma of prostatic adenocarcinoma and adjacent unaffected parenchyma.
The intensity of TGF- β and MMP2 expression in epithelium, tumorous stroma and adjacent unaffected
parenchyma was analyzed in 62 specimens of prostatic adenocarcinoma by microarray-based
immunohistochemistry. TGF- β was more expressed in tumorous than in prostate stroma (p =0.000),
while no statistical significance in case of MMP2 (p = 0.097) was found. MMP2 was more expressed
in tumorous than in prostate epithelium (p =0.000), while no statistical significance in case of TGF- β
(p = 0.096) was observed. The study results indicate that both tumorous stroma and epithelium have
a role in tumor progression and support potential role of TGF- β and MMP2 in prostatic adenocarcinoma
progression.
