Poster Presentation - Reactive carbonyl compounds of protein in patients’ blood after surgical treatment of breast cancer



Abstract
Introduction. The problem of breast cancer (BC) is one of the important and complicated in oncology. In this aspect, there is a significant amount of interest in the study of oxidative processes, since their disorders can act as one of the pathogenetic factors of carcinogenesis.

Aim of the study. To study the Reactive carbonyl compounds of proteins (RCCs) in plasma and in erythrocytes of blood of the BC patients after surgical treatment.

Materials and methods. The blood of 20 women with BC was examined, which have I-IIIa stages after surgical treatment in the volume of radical resection or radical mastectomy performed at the first stage of treatment. The control group consisted of practically healthy women (n = 15). The level RCCs in erythrocytes and in blood plasma was determined by the method of Levine R.L et al. (1990).

Results of the study. In erythrocytes of BC patients with I stage, there was a slight decrease in the percentage of RCCs. At the same time, an increase of RCCs was observed in II stage BC patients (by 50% compared to control, p <0.05). The level of RCCs in erythrocytes of BC patient’s blood with III stage was 2 times lower than the control. In blood plasma of BC patients with I stage the significant increase in RCCs was observed (3 times compared with the control). In BC patients with II stage, this indicator exceeded control by 70-75% (p <0.05), whereas in patients with III stage of BC, the content of RCCs did not differ significantly from control.

Conclusions. These data suggest the development of carbonyl stress in the body of BC patients. Surgical removal of the tumor in breast cancer does not eliminate the conditions for the oxidative modification of proteins.

Poster Presentation - Influence of NECC (Nutrition and Exercise Center for Cancer Patients) on survival and body composition in Gastrointestinal Cancer Patients

Abstract BACKGROUND : Gastrointestinal cancer patients are particularly predisposed to develop cancer cachexia. Cachectic patients are characterized by loss of adipose tissue as well as skeletal muscle wasting which has a tremendous impact on quality of life and survival (1, 4). In terms of improvement for this multifactorial syndrome, Klinikum rechts der Isar (MRI) in Munich, Germany has founded NECC, a treatment concept including nutrition intervention and an individual training program. METHODS : In this study we focused on patients with pancreatic (n =15) and upper gastrointestinal cancer (n = 21). Body composition using CT images was analyzed initially, 4 weeks, 3 months and 6 months after initial visit of NECC (Image 1). To underline the outcome, NECC patients were matched to adequate partners who correspond in age, gender, diagnosis with TNM classification and type of surgery. The control group does not receive any further support concerning nutrition and physical exercise

Poster Presentation - The Notch ligand DLL1 exerts pro-carcinogenic effects in human breast cancer luminal A MCF-7 cells

Abstract  Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women and has a high rate of relapse and death. The Notch signaling pathway plays an important role in normal breast development and homeostasis. Dysregulation of Notch receptors and its ligands Jagged1, Jagged2, and DLL4 has been detected in BC and implicated in tumor development, progression, drug resistance, and recurrence. The Notch ligand DLL1 has emerged as a player in BC as its expression is undetectable in normal breast tissues, but moderate to high in BC. In this study, we examined the role of DLL1 in BC luminal A MCF-7 cells. Methodology: DLL1 siRNA and recombinant DLL1 protein were used to evaluate the effects of DLL1 in MCF-7 cells. Gene expression was analyzed by qRT-PCR and immunoblotting. Cell growth and proliferation were assessed by trypan blue exclusion and MTT methods. Microscopy and scratch wound-healing assays were used to evaluate colony formation and cell migration. Findings: In M
