“…Significantly higher SOD2 levels have been found in leukemia [23] and ovarian cancer [24], suggesting increased SOD2 activity was required for defense against ROS stress-induced injury and apoptosis [9]. In gastric cancer, elevated levels of SOD2 activity, mRNA and protein have been found to be associated with the aggressiveness of tumor and poor survival [25][26][27][28][29]. The Ala variant of SOD2 rs4880 is more active than the Val variant, sug-gesting that the homozygous CC genotype may present higher enzymatic activity than its TT counterpart [30].…”

“…Τα χαρακτηριστικά τους αυτά τις καθιστούν αποτελεσµατικούς αναστολείς της υπεροξείδωσης των λιπιδίων, ενώ η πυρηνική τους εντόπιση προστατεύει το DNA από οξειδωτική βλάβη και το κύτταρο από τον αποπτωτικό θάνατο(238)(239)(240). Μελέτες της έκφρασης των µεταλλοθειονινών στο φυσιολογικό εντερικό επιθήλιο, έδειξαν ότι οι πρωτεΐνες αυτές εκφράζονται τόσο στο κυτταρόπλασµα όσο και στον πυρήνα των εντεροκυττάρων που καλύπτουν τη λάχνη, αλλά και στο επιθήλιο των κρυπτών(241)(242)(243). Η σύνθεσή τους σχετίζεται µε τα επίπεδα ψευδαργύρου στο κύτταρο και ρυθµίζεται θετικά από διάφορες κυτταροκίνες (IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, INF-γ) (236).…”
