Abstract:
The study of the relationship between trace elements and drug resistance of tumor has been going on for a long time.It is clear that some trace elements are related to the tumor occurrence and its progress, such as selenium,zinc,copper.So they can be used as an sub index to diagnosis and to evaluate prognosis. Further study in recent years has shown that trace elements are related to the tumor drug risistance. Improveing nourishment of tumor cells may change its drug resistance and influence the curative effect of tumor. The significance of this study is to search for a simple and approach in reducing drug resistance in order to improve the chemotherapeutic effect and the patient′s prognosis.
