Aims: To analyze the tissue expression of the proteins CD 10 and NM 23 through the immunohistochemichal study of the colorectal carcinoma and evaluate the expression relation of these proteins with the anatomopathological aspects of the neoplasia, clinical staging, occurrence of hepatic metastasis and patients’ prognostic. Method: One hundred and thirty operated patients of colorectal carcinoma have been analyzed. A block of tissue microarray was produced with the neoplastic mucosa and with the adjacent non-neoplastic mucosa. An immunohistochemichal study was performed with monoclonal antibodies NM23 and CD10 on the neoplastic tissue and non-neoplastic tissue of the adjacent mucosa. The interpretation of the slides was made by a scanner device. The immunoexpression was evaluated by the percentage of colored cells and the obtained intensity scores. The results were related to the morphological and histopathological characteristics of the carcinoma, clinical staging, presence of hepatic metastasis and to the prognostic of the patients. In the statistic study were used the Mann-Whitney test, the Kruskal-Wallis test and Fisher’s exact test. The analysis of survival was conducted with the use of the Kaplan-Meier curve and the comparison conclusion between the curves was calculated through the Longrank test. Results: Both markers CD10 and NM23 presented a higher expression on the carcinoma tissue rather than on the non-neoplastic adjacent mucosa (p<0,0001 for both). The expression of the proteins NM23 and CD10 did not present any relation to the degree of cellular differentiation (p=0,57 and p=0,48, respectively) , vascular invasion (p=0,85 and p=0,67, respectively), lymphatic invasion (p=0,41and 0,73, respectively), perineural infiltration (p=0,46 and p=0,24, respectively) and with the staging by the TNM classification (p=0,19). The immunoexpression of CD10 on the colorectal carcinoma tissue was higher (p=0,15) on the exophytic neoplasias than on the non-exophytic tumors. The expression of the proteins NM23 and CD10 did not present any relation with the incidence of lymphonodal metastasis (p=0,08 and 0,30, respectively). The tissue expression of the markers NM23 and CD10 did not relate to the occurrence of hepatic metastasis (p=0,59 and 0,31 respectively). The disease-free survival disclosed a significant relation (p=0,01) with a higher intensity of immunoexpression of the protein NM23 on the colorectal carcinoma’s tissue. However, the same did not occur with the immunoexpression of the protein CD10 (p=0,18). The global survival did not show any relation with the expression of the proteins NM23 and CD10 (p=0,13 and p=0,24, respectively). Conclusions: The neoplastic tissue of the colorectal carcinoma expresses more intensely the proteins NM23 and CD10 than the adjacent nonneoplastic mucosa. The expression of the proteins NM23 and CD10 does not relate to the presence of lymphonodal metastasis, hepatic metastasis, degree of cellular differentiation, colonic or rectal localization of the neoplasia, presence of vascular and/or lymphatic invasion, presence of neural infiltration and the staging of the colorectal carcinoma. The patients with increased immunoexpression of the protein NM23 presented a disease-free survival significantly higher. The intensity of the tissue immunoexpression of the protein CD10 did not influence the disease-free survival. The global survival does not relate to the immunoexpression of the proteins NM23 and CD10.
