Abstract:
The study revealed a two-fold elevation of ROS production in peripheral blood lymphocytes of the patients with prostate cancer (from 0.48±0.04 to 0.93±0.12 rel. units) together with significant variability of individual values. Hormone therapy had no effect on the mean and individual ROS levels. In contrast, organometallic cytostatics cisplatin and morfozol 2-fold increased ROS generation in lymphocytes of patients with prostate cancer above the enhanced level of this parameter determined by tumor growth.
