interdependence of antioxidants and micronutrients in oral cancer and potentially malignant oral disorders: a serum and saliva study.

چکیده
in our previous studies we have evaluated the role of antioxidants and trace elements in potentially malignant disorders and cancers of the oral cavity, taking into consideration the importance of antioxidants as biomarkers in cancer detection. we felt that other than evaluation, the correlation and interdependence that existed among antioxidants and trace elements require further evaluation in order to develop a better understanding.serum and salivary zinc, glutathione, and superoxide dismutase levels were evaluated in 65 healthy controls, 115 subjects with potentially malignant oral disorders, and 50 subjects with oral squamous cell carcinoma, using the atom absorption photometry, [5, 5-dithiobis (2 nitrobenzoic acid)], and nitroblue tetrazolium methods, respectively.serum zinc and serum glutathione showed significant positive correlation (r=0.76, p=0.01). similarly, salivary glutathione and salivary zinc levels had a positive correlation (r=0.68, p=0.01). serum superoxide dismutase showed a strong positive correlation with serum zinc (r=0.64, p=0.01). similarly, there was a moderate positive correlation between salivary superoxide dismutase and salivary zinc (r=0.67, p=0.01).our findings showed that trace elements and antioxidants exhibited interdependence in serum, as well as in saliva, in both physiologic and pathologic states such as oral cancer.

background and aims. many oral squamous cell carcinomas develop from potentially malignant disorders (pmds) which include a variety of lesions and conditions characterized by an increased risk for malignant transformation. this study evaluated the quantitative expression of egfr in normal oral mucosa, oral leukoplakia and oral submucous fibrosis to predict the malignant risk in compliance with ...
متن کاملAssessment of serum copper, iron and immune complexes in potentially malignant disorders and oral cancer.
Potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) of oral cavity and oral cancer remain a cause of serious concern despite intensive research and development. Diet and immunity have been identified to play a crucial role as modifying factors in these diseases. Our study intended to explore this relationship by estimating and comparing the serum levels of copper, iron and circulating immune complexes (CICs...
