Аннотация
Decreased intracellular SOD protein levels and activity have been related with malignancy in the past. To investigate their relevance in the carcinogenetic process in the colon, we determined quantitatively CuZn-SOD and Mn-SOD levels and total SOD activity by histochemical means in human normal colorectal mucosa, adenomas, and carcinomas. Protein levels and activity were significantly decreased in carcinomas. CuZn-SOD protein levels, but not Mn-SOD levels or total SOD activity were related with differentiation grade and to a lesser extent with Dukes stage. Moderately differentiated carcinomas and Dukes stage A carcinomas showed lowest levels. Some carcinomas expressed elevated levels of CuZn-SOD and this was an indication of poor survival. It is concluded that decreased SOD expression is not a prognostic marker and seems to be a secondary phenomenon rather than directly linked with the carcinogenetic process.
