Abstract
Gastrointestinal cancers (GI) are one of the most abundant types of cancers among the world population, though statistical data indicate that in eastern Asia these types of cancer occur 4 times more often than in Western Europe. Absence of treatment of bacterial infections, obesity, and lack of vegetable food in a diet can be the case of GI cancer. All pathologies are inevitably connected to the changes in cell cycle, abnormal protein amount and their dysfunction. Serum proteins are widely used as an additional source of information about body condition, also changes in protein composition can point out the mechanism of disease development and effectiveness of treatment. In the presented work we studied protein composition of GI cancer patients in different stages of cancer development, after and before chemotherapy and compared these data to protein composition of healthy control group of voluntaries. Treatment of patients was performed according the guidelines appropriate for the GI cancer. Association of the effectiveness of treatment at the different stages of chemotherapeutic courses and changes of protein composition of blood serum has been assessed. Proteins composition was studies by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and densitometry analysis. Experimentally gained molecular and statistical information exposed the most vulnerable groups of proteins affected by chemotherapeutic agents indicating targets for searching new biomarkers for treatment effectiveness. Research involving human patients performed in accordance with the requirements of the Council of Europe Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine, Biomedical Research, as well as the UNESCO Declaration of Bioethics and Human Rights.Keywords
