Özet
Background: Considerable evidences have linked oxidative damage and cancer. In this article, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) activities, and malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide metabolites' levels (NOx) were investigated in patients with stomach cancer. Methods: All measurments were done by spectrophotometric techniques. Results: We observed a significant decrease in the activities of SOD and CAT in tumour tissues when compared with control tissues. The different of GSHPx activities and NO metabolite' levels were not statistically significant. MDA levels were significantly increased. Conclusions: We conclude that increased MDA levels and decreased antioxidant enzyme activities can be valuable parameters in assessing the possible risk of cancer.
