Indicators of redox state are associated with tumor factors of the microenvironment: an increase of tumor-associated adipocytes as an important source of energy for tumor progression, high levels of lactate/pyruvate ratio, and superoxide-generating activity of neutrophils in the blood, which reflect the hypoxic state and redox imbalance of the body. It was found that defects in the oxidative phosphorylation mechanism, deepening hypoxia, an increase of the superoxide radicals rate generation, the matrix metalloproteinases activity and DNA guanine oxidation in adjacent adipose tissue are associated to an aggressive phenotype, distant tumor metastasis and are promising markers for a personalized prognosis of gastrointestinal cancer. The use of these markers will increase the effectiveness of anticancer therapy and improve patient survival. Product Description popup.authors Bubnovskaya Larysa M. Burlaka Anatoliy P.
