Abstract:
By spectrometry, in 78 patients with uterine servical cancer and a control group of 45 healthy person, the activity of erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes and plasma total antioxidant was determined. Results showed a significant decrease of SOD enzyme and blood red cell GPX in cervical cancer patients versus that of the controls. There is a light decrease of total antioxidant state of plasma in patients with cervical cancer versus the controls, and of Hb level in patients with cervical cancer versus the controls. The results suggests a relation between the activity of antioxidant enzyme in cervical cancer patients and DNA damage due to oxygene stress
