Membrane-bound heat shock protein mHsp70 as a marker for malignant brain tumors

Abstract
Summary. The membrane-bound heat shock protein mHsp70 is selectively expressed on the surface of tumor cells, but not on normal cells; it makes mHsp70 a promising target for theranostics of malignant tumors. Objective: in vivo visualization of mHsp70-positive cells in malignant human brain tumors. Materials and methods: intraoperative sampling of histological material was carried out from 7 patients with malignant tumors and from 3 patients with epilepsy. Localization of Hsp70 was determined using live confocal microscopy. To identify intergroup differences in the intensity of green pixels (Hsp70), the Kruskal-Wallis test was applied. Results. A method for intravital staining of tumor samples and image registration by the laser scanning confocal microscopy was developed. High expression of mHsp70 was found in tumor cells compared to control cells in the brain tissue of patients with epilepsy. Conclusion. For the first time, in vivo visualization of mHsp70-positive cells in malignant brain tumors was performed. The results indicate the possibility of using mHsp70 as a marker of tumor cells.
