Osteoplastic bone metastasis

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
X-ray of the abdomen and pelvis of a 70-year-old patient with advanced prostate cancer. The increase in bone density due to the osteoplastic bone metastases (weaker blackening due to the lower transparency for the X-rays) is clearly visible.

Osteoplastic bone metastases are less common than the osteolytic variant . Their share in bone metastases is around 15%. Osteoplastic metastases mainly occur in prostate cancer, less often in other cancers. In the literature, osteoplastic metastases have been described in breast cancer, myeloma , colorectal carcinoma, astrocytoma , glioblastoma , thymoma , carcinoid , nasopharyngeal carcinoma, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome , leptomeningeal gliomatosis and cervical carcinoma .

Endothelin-1

Rod model of endothelin-1

The peptide hormone endothelin -1 (ET-1) seems to play a central role in osteoplastic metastases . The signaling pathways of ET-1 are not yet fully understood. It is found in osteocytes , osteoblasts , osteoclasts, and endothelial cells . In the osteoblasts that express the two endothelin receptors ET A and ET B , it stimulates mitosis (cell division). It also stimulates the formation of other bone growth factors such as BMP-7 ( bone morphogenetic protein 7 ). The transport of phosphate is of great importance for the structure of the bone matrix ( calcification ). Endothelin-1 activates the enzyme protein kinase C via the ET A receptor in the osteoblasts .

Tumors with osteoplastic metastases, such as prostate cancer and some forms of breast cancer , express endothelin-1 and the endothelin receptors. Therefore, it is assumed that the produced by the tumors endothelin-1 paracrine (the secreted factors act in the immediate environment of the cell) and / or autocrine (the secreted factors act on the cell itself) Effects with regard to the tumor growth and apoptosis has . In addition to endothelin-1, the epithelium of the prostate also produces the two endothelin receptors that are present throughout the gland. The plasma concentration of endothelin-1 is significantly higher in patients with advanced bone metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer than in patients with non-metastatic prostate cancer. The production of endothelin-1 is androgens downregulated and by factors such as TGF-β, epidermal growth factor ( epidermal growth factor , EGF), interleukin-1α , interleukin-1β and TNF-α up-regulated. In in-vitro experiments with prostate cancer cells and pieces of bone in coculture it was possible to show that the expression of endothelin-1 by the cancer cells is increased upon contact with the bone tissue. In the animal model of the nude mouse , a blockade of TGF-β can reduce the probability of metastasis of prostate cancer cells in the skeletal system.
