Sažetak
Aim To compare the indicators of the spatial organization
of collagen and its regulating factors between benign and
malignant prostate neoplasms.
Methods The study involved tumor tissue samples from
40 patients with stage II-III prostate cancer (PCa) and 20 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The localization of collagen was determined with a Masson trichrome
stain. To establish quantitative indicators of the spatial organization of collagen, morphometric studies were carried
out with the CurveAlign and ImageJ programs.
Results PCa tissue had two times lower collagen density
(P<0.0001) and 1.3 times lower levels of collagen alignment (P=0.018) compared with BPH tissue. In PCa tissue,
collagen fibers were shorter (by 24.2%; P<0.001) and thicker (by 15.5%; P<0.001). PCa tissue samples showed significantly higher levels of metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 (by 2.4
times; P=0.001), MMP-8 (by 2.3 times; P=0.007), and MMP13 (by 1.9 times; P=0.004).
Conclusions Collagen matrix spatial organization features, as well as its regulatory factors, could be potential
biomarkers of malignant prostate neoplasms
