Abstract

A purpose of current research was to investigate the neuroendocrine component of prostate adenocarcinoma. The immunohistochemical investigation with using markers of neuroendocine differentiation – chromogranin A and neuron-specific enolase was performed. The neuroendocrine differentiation in light-cell adenocarcinoma is more expressive comparing with poorly dark-cell adenocarcinoma, and the neuroendocrine differentiation in moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma is more expressive comparing with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma.
