    Circulating calprotectin as a biomarker of laryngeal carcinoma
    (SPRINGER, 2017) BİNNETOĞLU, ADEM; Topuz, Muhammet Fatih; Binnetoglu, Adem; Yumusakhuylu, Ali Cemal; Sari, Murat; Baglam, Tekin; Gerin, Fetullah
    Calprotectin is an S100 protein and marker of inflammation found in neutrophils and monocytes; S100 proteins are a family of calcium-modulated proteins. The aim of this study was to determine if the serum concentration of calprotectin is higher in patients with laryngeal carcinoma than in patients with benign laryngeal pathologies and controls. The study included 107 participants. The serum calprotectin concentration was analyzed using the calprotectin ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) kit (Calpo AS, Norway). EDTA-serum for analysis was collected prior to surgery from patients with laryngeal carcinoma (n = 41), those with a benign laryngeal pathology (Reinke's edema, vocal nodules, etc.) (n = 32), and healthy controls (n = 34). The median serum calprotectin concentration was significantly higher in the laryngeal carcinoma group (2179.6 mu g L-1) than in the benign laryngeal pathology group (727.84 mu g L-1) and control group (733.73 mu g L-1) (P < 0.05). The median serum calprotectin concentration in patients with advanced-stage laryngeal cancer (5854.,4 mu g L-1) was significantly higher than in those with early-stage laryngeal cancer (971.84 mu g L-1) (P < 0.05); however, there was not a significant difference in the median calprotectin concentration between the control and benign laryngeal pathology groups (P > 0.05). Furthermore, the median serum calprotectin concentration in the patients with early-stage laryngeal cancer (n = 21) (971.84 mu g L-1) was significantly higher than that in the benign laryngeal pathology and control groups (n = 64) (730.6 mu g L-1) (P < 0.05). The serum calprotectin concentration was strongly correlated with poor survival and advanced-stage laryngeal carcinoma. Malignant laryngeal cancer patients (n = 4) that died during follow-up had a higher median serum calprotectin concentration (9468.4 mu g L-1) than those that remained alive (n = 37) (857.78 mu g L-1) (P < 0.05). The serum calprotectin concentration is higher in patients with laryngeal carcinoma than in those with benign laryngeal pathologies and healthy controls. The present findings show that the serum calprotectin concentration might be used as a marker to discriminate between laryngeal carcinoma and benign laryngeal pathologies. Additional research is needed to further assess the value of this parameter as a useful tumor marker for the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of laryngeal carcinoma.

    Effectiveness of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone for Pharyngocutaneous Fistula Closure
    (KOREAN SOC OTORHINOLARYNGOL, 2015) BİNNETOĞLU, ADEM; Kucuk, Nurten; Sari, Murat; Midi, Ahmet; Yumusakhuylu, Ali Cemal; Findik, Ozan; Binnetoglu, Adem
    Objectives. In laryngeal cancer, which comprises 25% of head and neck cancer, chemotherapy has come into prominence with the increase in organ-protective treatments. With such treatment, salvage surgery has increased following recurrence; the incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula has also increased in both respiratory and digestive system surgery We investigated the effects of recombinant human growth hormone on pharyngocutaneous fistula closure in Sprague-Dawley rats, based on an increase in amino acid uptake and protein synthesis for wound healing, an increase in mitogenesis, and enhancement of collagen formation by recombinant human growth hormone. Methods. This study was experimental animal study. Forty Sprague-Dawley rats were separated into two groups, and pharyngoesophagotomy was perfouned. The pharyngoesophagotomy was sutured with vicryl in both groups. Rats in group 1 (control group) received no treatment, while those in group 2 were administered a subcutaneous injection of recombinant human growth hormone daily. On day 14, the pharynx, larynx, and upper oesophagus were excised and examined microscopically. Results. Pharyngocutaneous fistula exhibited better closure macroscopically in the recombinant human growth hormone group. There was a significant difference in collagen formation and epithelisation in the recombinant human growth hormone group compared to the control group. Conclusion. This study is believed to be the first in which the effect of recombinant human growth hormone on pharyngocutaneous fistula closure was evaluated, and the findings suggest the potential of use of growth hormone for treatment of pharyngocutaneous fistula.
