ABSTRACT:
Background: The incidence of thyroid cancer has increased during the last three decades. Many studies have been conducted to determine whether there is a link between viral infections and thyroid carcinogenesis. Human Papilloma viruses (HPV) are related to a variety of benign and malignant tumors. P57 is a member of the Cip/Kip family that binds and inhibits all cyclin/CDK complexes, resulting in cell-cycle arrest as well as cell growth. Objective: This retrospective study designed to investigate histopathological expression of thyroid cancer tissues in relation to the concordant HPV31/33 infection and p57 protein over-expressions. Patients and Methods: HPV31/33 DNA and P57-gene protein expression were evaluated in 116 thyroid tissues. The samples related to 36 patients with thyroid carcinoma, 40 thyroid adenoma, and 40 normal thyroid tissues. In situ hybridization (ISH) used to identify HPV31/33-DNA, whereas immunohistochemistry (IHC) used to assess P57-gene expression. Results: Regarding thyroid carcinoma group, HPV31/33DNA-ISH are responses observed in 77.8%, in 30 % of thyroid adenomas group, and in 22.5 %of normal thyroid tissues group. The difference between HPV31/33 in thyroid malignancies and the control group was statistically significant. The p57 protein detected in 75% thyroid cancer tissues and in 52.5 % adenoma thyroid tissues, whereas 35% of the investigated normal thyroid tissues showed IHC-reactions. The difference in the detected percentages of P57 protein was statistically significant in thyroid tissues between the study groupsin relations to the control group. Conclusions: The significant detection of HPV31/33 along with over-expressed P57-gene in thyroid cancer patients could support a possible role for both HPV 31/33 along with this p57 protein in thyroid pathogenesis and for carcinogenesis.
KEYWORDS: Thyroid Cancers, Benign thyroid adenoma, HPV genotype 31/33, ISH, IHC, P57.
INTRODUCTION:
Human papilloma viruses are found to be completely species and tissue-specific viruses1. To date, the family of Papillomaviridae comprises more than 450 different genotypes of human papillomavirus and over 200 animal papilloma viruses2,3,4. The viruses are epithelio-tropic viruses infecting cutaneous tissues as well as mucosal membranes leading to asymptomatic infection, benign warts and malignancies5.
Infection with HPV affects a range of tissues among them, respiratory, oral cavity, ano-genital tract and urethral mucosal tissues1. According to their oncogenic potential these viruses divided into high and low-risk types 6. The HPV16 and HPV18 globally recognized as a common cause of sexually transmitted viral infections that linked etiologically to >95% of cervical cancers 7, 8.
Cancers, as non-communicable diseases, are now ranking as the leading cause of global deaths, expected as the single most important barrier globally for increasing life expectancy in the 21st century (Ministry of Health\Environment9,10. Over the past three decades, the incidence of thyroid cancer increased globally. Regarding the Eastern Mediterranean Region, the predicted cancer rates could be doubled by 203011. However, in selected high-income countries were in relation to the increased access to healthcare, improved diagnostic technology, and increased surveillance account for more than 60% of thyroid cancer diagnoses12. The thyroid gland as a member of the endocrine system consists of two lobes (connected by the isthmus) as well as a third one, the pyramidal lobe, (found in 28- 55% of the population)13.
According to their morphology and biology, thyroid cancers are divided grossly into two groups; (1st ) well differentiated thyroid cancers [slowly growing] papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC)(accounts for approximately 85% of thyroid tumors) and the follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) (accounts for 5-15% of thyroid malignancies)14,15, (2nd)poorly differentiated thyroid cancers[rapidly growing and invasive] anaplastic thyroid cancers (ATC), (comprising a 1-2% of all diagnosed thyroid malignancies). Approximately 5% of thyroid malignancies originating from the parafollicular C cells diagnosed as medullary carcinoma14.
P57 belongs to the Cip/Kip family (one of two cyclin inhibitory families), it binds to and inhibits all cyclin/CDK complexes. Despite the apparent duplication of each Cip/Kip member (p21, p27, and p57), their siblings serve separate functions 16, 17. P27 and p57 have similar structures, especially in their N-terminal regions, where a conserved domain has been identified that are needed for binding and inhibiting CDK complexes 18, 19.
This study aimed to estimate the participation role of relevant high-oncogenic risk types of human papilloma virus (namely genotypes31/33) in archival tissues specimens from thyroid malignancies and benign tumors, as well as to examine the impact of the expression of p57 gene.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
The study has selected 116 formalin fixed paraffin embedded thyroid tissues blocks; which included (36) malignant thyroid tumor divided into grade I,II & III, (40) thyroid adenoma tissues and 40 healthy thyroid tissues(used as control group).One section was specified to be mounted on ordinary glass slide and stained with hematoxylin and eosin, while other slides mounted on positive charged slides to be used for ISH for detection of HPV and for IHC to detection of p57 protein. In one hand, the detection of HPV31/33 by ISH kit (Zyto Vision GmbH. Fischkai, Bremerhaven. Germany) was performed on 4µm paraffin embedded tissue sections using digoxigenin-labeled oligo-nucleotides probes that target HPV31/33-DNA. Immunohistochemistry detection system (Abcam, England) used to demonstrate the P57 protein expression. Pearson Chi –square test by SPSS program (Version–27) & P value was considered significant when p ≤0.05.
RESULTS:
The age ofpatients with thyroid carcinoma ranged from 11 to 80 years, while those with thyroid adenoma from 10 to 67 years and those from where normal thyroid tissues obtained from 13 to 67 years. Statistically, non-significant differences noticed among research groups (P 0.840). The most affected age stratum among all the examined patients were those aged from 40-49 years as showed in table-1. Gender distribution detects are shown in table-1 where non-significant difference noticed.

In this work, the IHC method was employed to detect changes in p57-expression in the cells of the investigated thyroid tissues in the different study groups. Table-4 demonstrates that positive p57-IHC values obtained in 75% of thyroid carcinoma tissues, in 52.5% of thyroid adenoma tissues, and positive p57-IHC values were found in 35% of the apparently healthy control tissues with high-significant differences (p 0.002). Table-4, additionally, demonstrates high intensities as well as score3 in studied groups, 47.2% and 61.1%, respectively in thyroid carcinoma tissues, 40% and52.5%, respectively, of thyroid adenoma tissues, and 32.5%, 35%, respectively of normal thyroid control tissues. There were statistically significant differences between the studied groups.

HPV31/33-ISH positive result (C) displays primarily Red staining negative result (D) P57 immunostaining was found to be positive (dark brawn) (E) Immunohistochemistry of P57 yielded a negative result (purple hematoxylin stain).
DISCUSSION:
This study found a statistically highly significant difference in the detection rates of HPV 31/33 among the analyzed thyroid tumors and control groups by using the CISH technique in conjunction with the histopathological expressions of thyroid tumors (i.e. thyroid carcinoma and thyroid adenoma) and as compared to apparently healthy thyroid tissues. Mostafaeiet al., 202015, revealed that papillary carcinoma (among thyroid tumor types) was the most commonly related to viral infections, where it is likely due to the fact that papillary cancer is the most frequent kind of thyroid carcinoma, accounting for nearly 85% of cases. As shown in table-3, HR-HPV31/33-DNA positive results were found in77.8% ofthyroid carcinomatous tissues,in thyroid adenomatous tissues 30% showed positive results,and 22.5% revealed positive HPV31/33results in control thyroid tissues with (P 0.0001).
In Iraq, Mohammed et al.20, conducted a study in 2018 to identify the expressedhigh oncogenic risk HPV-18 antigen in thyroid tissues by using immunohistochemistry technique and found that 56.7% of patients had HPV-18 antigen, with 35% of benign thyroid tumors have HPV-18 positive-IHC tests while none of the healthy tissues in the control tissues having HPV-18 positive- IHC reactions. By the analogy of both HPV18 & HPV31/33 as high-oncogenic risk HPV genotypes, these findings are relatively consistent with the results of the present study, although those researchers studied the HPV 18- expressed antigens in these tissues while the present study, as a pioneer study in Iraq, searched for HPV 31/33 DNA localization where the differences in rates are referred for the difference in technique, viral genotype, and the physical states of the examined HPV genotype, as HPV-DNA viruses antigen expression.
In 2021, Dialameh, et al.21, (from Shiraz, Iran) considered their study to be the first in Iran, that link HPV to thyroid cancers (particularly papillary thyroid carcinoma) when they enrolled sample of 82 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and 77 benign thyroid nodules and used nested polymerase chain reaction technique to determine the presence of a broad spectrum of HPV genotypes and they found that 13.4% had positive-results for nPCR HPV of PTC and 3.8% had positive-results for nPCR HPV of benign thyroid nodules samples, while none of the neighboring normal tissues showed PCR positive results. In that work, Dialameh, et al. and associates highly urged that future studies in this field to be employ by different methods (other than PCR) for HPV-detection such as chromogenic in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. In both studies (the Dialameh’s study and the present study) it could be suggested that the infecting particles of HPV can possibly reached the thyroid gland via the bloodstream. Globally, the head and neck malignant tumors ranked the 6th most common malignancies where more than 70% of them reported in third world countries22. Furthermore, several investigations for the identification of HPV in head and neck malignancies, such as Ali et al.23 studies in Iraq in 2011 and 2017, reported that 3.2% and 10%, respectively, of positive CISH signals for HPV DNA in a group of apparently healthy oral and nasal control tissues. Another study in Iraq by Ali, et al.23 in 2021 found that 20% of the positive CISH-HPV-DNA results in the adenoid hypertrophy group, while the control tissues revealed no test result. This research also revealed that the integrated form of HPV-DNA-CISH signal detection in adenoid hypertrophy tissues was noticed in 70% of the positive HPV results in the adenoid hypertrophy.
P57-IHC positive results there were high statistical significant differences among these thyroid tissue groups (p 0.002) as in Table-4. In analogy, the cancer development is the result of several combining and interacting variables involve multiple genes and processes. Recurrence and metastasis are serious issues that pose hazards to human health while biotechnology has progressed, more genes that may promote or prevent cancer development discovered. So as to explore the relationships of the genes to the cancer growth this is critical for predicting cancer prognosis as well as treatment efficacy24,25,26. The decreased p57 expression was found to be linked to tumor aggressiveness and poor prognosis in a variety of cancers. However, mutations in the p57 gene (CDKN1C) are uncommon in malignancies27,28.
Lee, et al. (2010)29 revealed that because the cell cycle is controlled at the level of the nucleus, earlier investigations of cell-cycle regulators have neglected their cytoplasmic expression and focused primarily on their nuclear expression, suggesting that loss their function plays a role in malignant transformation. According to Lee et al. 2010, the upregulation of a tumor suppressor as a result of other molecular alterations that allow the cell to enter the cell cycle causes the cell to over express cytoplasmic p57. Upregulation of cytoplasmic p57 might indicate a cell's attempt to halt cell cycle growth and keep cell cycle control (i.e., a homeostatic feedback mechanism). Nuclear P57 expression was found in 57.1% of follicular adenoma cases, 65.6% of papillary thyroid carcinoma cases without lymph node metastasis, and 78.1% of papillary thyroid malignant tumors with lymph node metastasis. However, in the cytoplasm of tumor cells from the PTC group, there was some positive expression of p57. The sensitivity of immunostaining for cytoplasmic p57 was 43.75% in a research by Lee et al. 201027. According to Borrielloet al., (2011) 30, three investigations on the level of p57 in thyroid tumors have been conducted. Ito et al. (2002) 31 examined the expression of p57 and found the protein was overexpressed in thyroid follicular adenomas and minimally in invasive thyroid follicular adenomas, while in an invasive follicular carcinomas showed a decrease in protein express. In poorly differentiated and undifferentiated carcinomas, p57 expression was reduced. In 2004, the same research group found that p57 protein was significantly reduced in more than 50% of the thyroid lymphoma cases. However, Melck et al. (2007)32 found no difference in p57-expression.
Oncoproteins of HPV may interact with proteins that regulated cell cycle like CDKs and CDK inhibitors. In cervical cancer, there is some evidence that HPV E7 can inhibit the action of a tumor suppressor called p21Cip1 (Cip/Kip family members p21, p27,and p57). HPV genotype 16-E7 inhibits p21's action on proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-dependent DNA replication. Several investigations also revealed that inhibiting p63 expression in HPV31-positive keratinocytes lowered the expression of cyclins A, B, and E, as well as Cdk1, Cdc25c, and Cdk233,34.
CONCLUSIONS:
In conclusion, the considerable identification of HPV31/33 together with the over-expressed protein from the P57-gene in patients with thyroid cancer (and other studied series of thyroid adenoma as well as apparently healthy thyroid tissues) could point for a critical role (among other multi-factors in thyroid carcinogenesis) where along with the changes in the expression of CDK and CIKs (have long been thought to be a characteristic of cancer progression). Given the relevance of CIKs in thyroid tissues, not only management indicators but also treatment approaches to viral infections might be identified.
RECOMMENDATION:
We recommended other molecular research in the near future with large sample size and more clinicopathological features in different thyroid cancers to detect the presence of HR-HPV31/33-DNA and to assess the role of HPV high-risk genotypes in carcinogenesis (initiation and progression) of thyroid tumors. Study the role of p57 and its importance in the regulation of cell cycle and survival in benign and malignant tumors of the thyroid gland by using more developed laboratory materials and techniques to right predict diseases and choice the effective therapeutic patterns.
