STUDY OF INFECTION BY HERPES VIRUSES (CMV, EBV) OF VARIOUS NATURE BRAIN TUMORS
Keywords:
brain tumors, cytomegalovirus, Epstein — Barr virus, tumor tissue, blood, polymerase chain reaction.Abstract
Summary. Objective: to study the frequency of persistence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein — Barr
virus (EBV) in tissue of different histogenesis and degree of malignancy of brain tumors, as well as in the
blood of neuro-oncological patients. Object and methods: we investigated 231 sample biopsy/surgical material of various brain tumors and 60 samples of whole peripheral blood of patients (127 adults, 14 children aged
1–15 years) who underwent surgery in 2014–2015 at
the SI «A.P. Romodanov Institute of Neurosurgery of
NAMS of Ukraine». Histological structure of the tumors was studied according to the standard technique,
using the modern classification. The detection in tumor
tissue and blood for CMV and EBV was performed by
a conventional method, the polymerase chain reaction
(PCR) real-time. DNA extraction from samples was
performed using sets of «DNA Sorb-B» («AmpliSens»,
Russia) according to the instructions of the manufacturer. PCR was carried out using the device Bio Rаd, with
diagnostic kits to detect CMV and EBV (DNA-technology, Russia) according to the instructions. Statistical processing of results was performed using the program «Statistica 9» with the definition of Pearson’s χ2
and index p. Results: the most frequently detected DNA
of CMV and EBV in tissue glial intracerebral tumors at
33.3 and 41.3%, respectively. Among connective tissue
tumors of the cerebral meninges (meningiomas) of positive samples was significantly lower (p < 0.05); medulloblastoma and other tumors took an intermediate place.
In differentiated glial tumor DNA of both viruses was
identified in the 2.2–2.5 times more often than in glioblastomas IV degree of malignancy. In whole peripheral
blood DNA CMV was detected in 6.2%, DNA EBV —
in 30.8% of cases. Conclusion: the frequency of the presence of CMV DNA and EBV in brain tumors depend on
their histogenesis and degree of malignancy, significantly higher than that in whole peripheral blood of patients.
