Özet

Background: Colorectal cancer is one of the most common carcinomas observed in humans. Recently we have reported that increased oxidative stress is associated with human colorectal cancer. There are few and controversial studies on the clinical relevance of the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP 70), a member of the HSP family, in colorectal cancer. In this study, we assayed lipid peroxide levels, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity and the expression of inducible heat shock protein 70 (ihsp 70) in 20 paired samples of colorectal tumor and adjacent normal tissues in order to determine the relationship between oxidative stress and ihsp 70 expression. Histopathological results were also considered to estabish the clinical relevance of ihsp 70 in colorectal cancer.
