424 Background: The high-throughput method using microarray is easy and fast way to analyze the methylation status of hundreds of preselected genes and to screen them for signatures in methylation. The aim of our study is to detect hypermethylated genes and to analyze the association between methylation status and clinicopathological parameters of clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Methods: The genetic substrate included 62 cancer tissues and 62 matched adjacent normal kidney tissues. We adapted the GoldenGate genotyping assay to determine the methylation state of 1505 specific CpG sites in 807 genes. Results: We identified two genes (HOXA5 and MSH2) with β-value differences of more than 0.3 between cancer and normal tissues. High methylation group in HOXA5 had high Fuhrman’s nuclear grade (P=0.041). Other data in HOXA5 and MSH2 were not significant with methylation status (P>0.05). Survival curve of high methylation group in HOXA5 was slightly lower than that of low methylation group. However, the statistical significances of overall survival in HOXA5 and MSH2 were low (P>0.05). Conclusions: We report the hypermethylation of two genes in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. The data we obtained could provide the basis for a diagnostic test pathological assessment, or prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Aim. Renal cell carcinomas (RCC) – cancerous neoplasms of the genitourinary system representing about 3% of human malignant tumors. For malignancy degree indexing and tumor typing, shape of cell nucleus is widely used. However, genetic changes, in particular inactivation of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene can serve as indicators of RCC progression. Thus, the purpose of our study was establishing the methylation status and loss of heterozygosity of the VHL gene as a potential and applicable clinical marker of kidney tumors. Methods. Determination of allelic imbalance in VHL gene expression was performed by PCR of STR-markers with subsequent fragments separation in 8% PAAG and by capillary gel electrophoresis of fluorescent-labeled PCR fragments. Methyl-specific PCR was used for epigenetic variability of VHL gene promoter. To detect statistically significant differences between tumor specimens and adjacent kidney tissues, Fisher's exact test and Mann-Whitney U-criterion were applied. Results. In 57% of the tumor samples for the marker D3S1038 and 48% for the D3S1317 loss of heterozygosity of the VHL gene was detected. Polymorphic information content for these loci was 84% for D3S1038 and 90% for D3S1317. The VHL promoter hypermethylation was 77%. Conclusions. The obtained results indicate that VHL gene can be reviewed as a candidate for not only diagnostic, but also prognostic application in RCC cancer. Keywords: clear cell renal cell carcinoma, epigenetic changes, methylation, loss of heterozygosity, VHL.

This article presents a clinical case demonsratinga high metastatic potential of clear cell renal cell carcinoma combined with atypical metastases to breast and paranasal sinuses. The prevalence of metastatic lesions to the breast and paranasal sinuses in various malignant tumors depending on their morphological forms is analyzed. The authors present an analysis of data published for the last 30 years. The optimal diagnostic algorithms to detect the progression of renal cell carcinoma and to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment are considered.
