771. Cysteine cathepsins and stefins in head and neck cancer : an update of clinical studiesPrimož Strojan, 2008, pregledni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Background. Cancer of the head and neck represents a diverse group of malignant diseases; so far, no factor in a wide spectrum of biochemical and histological candidate-markers has yet been identified to predict reliably thenatural course of the disease or its response to the therapy to be used in routine clinical practice. Among the factors that promote tumor growth and invasion, several protease systems, implemented in proteolytic degradation of extracellular matrix components, were studied, including papain-like lysosomalcysteine proteases (e.g. cathepsins B and L) and their physiological inhibitors cystatins (e.g. stefins A and B, cystatin C). The aim of the present report is to review the published studies on clinical applicability ofcysteine cathepsins and their endogenous inhibitors stefins in squamous cellcarcinoma of the head and neck and to present recent research results fromthis area conducted jointly by the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana and ENTDepartment of the University Medical Center Ljubljana, Slovenia. Conclusions. According to our experience, immunohistochemical staining of cysteine cathepsins and stefins seems to be of limited value for predicting either treatment response or patientsć survival. However, the results of studies on stefin A in tumor tissue cytosols should be considered hypothesis-generating and deserves further evaluation in the frame of prospective controlled multicentric clinical study.

780. Roles of the reference service life (RSL) of buildings and the RSL of building components in the environmental impacts of buildingsTajda Potrč Obrecht, Roman Kunič, Sabina Jordan, Andraž Legat, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Povzetek: The Life Cycle Assessment of a building is a complex analysis that also involves the use of the predicted Reference Service Life (RSL) of the building components and materials, as well as the predicted RSL of the whole building. The RSL values of individual materials and building components can be obtained from different sources and are not exactly comparable. In the present study, the influence of selected RLS values on an LCA assessment was evaluated. Three different RSL databases were used as the sources of the data to estimate the environmental impacts of selected building components (internal wooden door and external finishing coat). Two scenarios were presented. In the first scenario a building component can be reused in another building, while in the second scenario the reuse of the building component is not possible. The study showed that dependent on the selected RSL database, the results can differ by up to a factor of five. Therefore, it is very important to describe clearly the maintenance scenarios for a building in order to have a reliable comparison of the results of LCA assessments.
