“…We previously reported that human MM cells had a higher amount of Mn-SOD protein compared with mesothelial cells when assayed by ELISA. 7 In this study, we further evaluated the levels of Mn-SOD mRNA and protein in human MM cells and mesothelial cells and confirmed that Mn-SOD is overexpressed in most human MM cells compared with mesothelial cells. Mn-SOD is an antioxidant enzyme located in mitochondria and probably plays a key role in oxidative stress and tumor cell apoptosis.…”

“…7 Others have also reported similar results. [8][9][10][11][12] These results suggested that Mn-SOD is a reliable molecular marker for MM, prompting us to target Mn-SOD in the development of a more selective molecular imaging for MM.…”

“…Correlation between zinc and iron shows the importance of these two elements in maintaining the health of the epithelium [19,27]. Positive correlation of Mn with Br, Cu, and Fe in case of leukoplakia may indicate the overutilization of Mn, a cofactor Mn-SOD enzyme in the condition of depleted Br, Fe, and Cu in this disease [32]. Positive correlation between Co and Fe in both the diseased conditions stresses on the importance of these two elements in maintaining epithelial integrity [9].…”

“…Interestingly, data of the present investigation study showed remarkable depletion in concentration of Mn in blood of leukoplakia patients as compared to that of the healthy counterparts. This probably reflects the system's need to utilize Mn for its specific role in combating oxidative stress through its association with Mn-SOD activity [32]. The possible biochemical interpretation of such contrasting data may be related to the sharp difference in the etio-pathogenesis of the two diseases where one is primarily a connective tissue disorder (OSF) while the other starts from the epithelium (LKP).…”
