ABSTRACT
The immunoexpression of BubR1 and cyclin B1 in pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and polymorphic adenocarcinoma (PAC) in minor salivary glands is poorly studied. Thus, a retrospective and observational study was performed to provide a better understanding of the role and immunopositivity patterns of these proteins in these lesions. Sixteen cases of PA and 16 cases of PAC were selected. Parenchyma cells were submitted to quantitative immunohistochemical analysis through the labeling index. Cytoplasmic immunoexpression of BubR1 was observed in neoplastic cells from all analyzed PA and PAC cases. All PA cases and 93.7% of PAC exhibited nuclear immunoexpression of BubR1. Higher cytoplasmic and nuclear immunoexpression of BubR1 was observed in PAC (p = 0.001 and p = 0.122, respectively). Cytoplasmic immunoexpression of cyclin B1 was observed in all cases of PA and PAC, with a higher labeling index in the latter (p < 0.001). There was a significant positive correlation between nuclear and cytoplasmic BubR1 immunoexpressions (p < 0.001) in PA and a significant negative correlation between BubR1 and cyclin B1 cytoplasmic immunoexpressions (p = 0.014) in PAC. The higher cytoplasmic and nuclear immunoexpression of BubR1 in PACs suggests the continuous maintenance of neoplastic cells in the cell cycle and migration. Higher immunoexpression of cyclin B1 supports this lesion's enhanced proliferative and migration ability.
