AIM: To study the relationship between the lipid peroxide (LPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal cancers.
METHODS: We investigated the SOD activity and LPO levels in blood and mucosa of patients with esophageal (EC), gastric (GC) and colorectal cancer (CC), gastric ulcer (GU) and compared with normal esophagus (NE), stomach (NS) and colon (NC). respectively, 287 patients who underwent endoscopy were studied. SOD activity of the tissue and blood was determined using SUN’s adrenaline auto oxidation method. LPO levels were determined according to YU’s method.
RESULTS: The SOD activity and LPO level in blood and mucosa are shown in the Table 1 (x-± sx-).
CONCLUSION: SOD activity of the tissue is significantly decreased in EC. GC and CC. LPO levels were significantly higher than those of corresponding normal tissue. These results suggest that mucosal SOD and LPO levels are closely related to the pathogenesis of the gastrointestinal cancers.
