Alteration in polyamines and enzymes in human breast cancer serum
Polyamines, spermidine and spermine constitute a group of cell components that are important in the regulation of cell proliferation and cell differentiation.The enzyme superoxide dismutase catalyzed the breakdown of superoxide anion (O2-) and provides the first line of defense against oxygen toxicity. This work is an attempt to look for possible biochemical marker and causes of breast cancer based on the above polyamines.The levels of spermine and spermidine and superoxide dismutase levels were measured in serum of two women groups.
