“…Both in malignant pathology and in DM, the dependence of the course of some pathological processes and the metabolic change features on the gender of experimental animals has been identified. Thus, certain significant gender differences were found in the regulation of the plasminogen system and the timing of the formation of experimental melanoma in mice against the background of chronic neurogenic pain [13], the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axes in the body in male and female mice with transplanted melanoma [14], and the effect of knockout of the urokinase gene on the growth of melanoma in the experiment [15]. Only in males with DM, a decrease in insulin-like growth factors and the IGFBP-1 carrier protein was observed in the heart tissue [16].…”

To study the intensity of lipid peroxidation (LPO) and the activity of the main antioxidant protection enzyme: superoxide dismutase (SOD) in heart tissues and tumors in rats of both genders with Guerin’s carcinoma (GC) and the tumor growth against the background of diabetes mellitus (DM). Materials and methods. Our research work was carried out in 80 outbread albino male and female rats, divided into 4 groups, with 10 animals of each gender in a group. The animals of two groups, namely, an intact animal group and a group of rats treated with alloxan DM (with a 5-fold increase in glucose levels) were subcutaneously transplanted with the Guerin’s carcinoma (GC) strain cells, and at the same time we used one group of the intact rats and another group of the animals with DM as the references. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA), diene conjugates (DC), and the SOD activity in the heart and the tumor tissues were determined by conventional spectrophotometric methods. Results. The most pronounced changes were found in the heart in the female rats with isolated GC and GC growing against the background of DM: a more than threefold increase in MDA, with a significant increase in DC and a multiple increase in the SOD activity as compared with the intact animals. In the GC tissue, the dependence of the severity of the increase in the MDA content on the size of the tumor was traced: the maximum increase in both parameters was observed in males with GC tumor growing against the background of DM. In the males, the volume of the subcutaneous tumor nodes was 1.8 times greater than that in the reference group and in the females with combined pathology, while in the females with combined pathology the volume of their tumors was 1.3 times less than that in the reference group, although the area of tumor lesions in them was maximum due to extensive metastasizing. Conclusion. DM has changed the specifics of oncogenesis depending on the gender of the animals. The identified gender differences in the redox status of the heart and the tumor in rats with combined pathology contribute to specifics of oncogenesis in males and females and determines their life expectancy.

Purpose of the study. To study the intensity of lipid peroxidation (LPO) and indicators of antioxidant protection in the liver of rats of different sexes with combined pathology – the growth of Guerin's carcinoma in presence of experimental type 1 diabetes mellitus.Materials and methods. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and diene conjugates (DC), the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, and the levels of vitamins A and D were studied by conventional spectrophotometric methods in liver tissue samples from males and females with alloxan‑induced diabetes mellitus (DM), transplanted Guerin’s carcinoma (GC) and in animals with combined pathologies (GC growth in presence of diabetes mellitus), as well as in intact rats.Results. The levels of both LPO markers in intact females were significantly higher than in males: MDA by 3 times, DC by 2 times. The development of DM led to an increase in the content of MDA and DC in the liver of males compared with intact animals, which indicated an intensification of LPO. At the same time, there was an almost twofold increase in SOD activity, a decrease in catalase activity, and an increase in the ratio of enzymes by 2.8 times. In females, there was no increase in LPO in the liver; there was only a less pronounced increase in SOD activity than in males. At the same time, SOD activity in males was 37 % higher than in females, and catalase activity, on the contrary, was lower by 33 %, which caused a twofold excess of the ratio of enzymes in males relative to females. Among animals with GC, only males had an increase in SOD by 2.5 times, a decrease in catalase activity, and an increase in the SOD/Catalase ratio by 3 times relative to intact animals, which may be due to pronounced sex differences the SOD activity and SOD/Catalase ratio in males were 3–4 times higher than that of females. The levels of MDA and DC in males with GC growing in presence of DM remained elevated, although to a somewhat lesser extent than in DM alone, while in females both indicators were reduced. The ratio of vitamins E and A increased only in males. SOD activity and SOD/Catalase coefficient in animals of both sexes with combined pathologies were significantly lower than in groups with only DM or GC.Conclusions. The data showed that diabetes mellitus changes the specificity of oncogenesis depending on the sex of the animals. Males with the growth of Guerin's carcinoma in presence of diabetes in conditions of inhibition of SOD activity and a decrease in the ratio of conjugated enzymes of the first line of antioxidant defense demonstrate an intensification of LPO accompanied by an increase in the non‑enzymatic unit of the antioxidant system, while there is no increase in LPO in females, and the indicators of antioxidant activity change to a lesser extent.

Taking into account cancer and diabetes comorbidity, the role of free radicals in these conditions and the dependence of pathological processes on the gender of animals, the aim of the study was to examine lipid peroxidation (LPO) intensity and the activity of the key antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the heart, kidneys, liver, and in tumors of male and female rats with diabetes mellitus (DM), Guerin's carcinoma (GC) or both diseases. Materials and Methods. The study included 80 white nonlinear male and female rats (180–220 g). The animals were divided into 4 groups, each group included 10 animals (either male or female). At the time of GC inoculation, the blood glucose level in animals with alloxan diabetes was 25.4±1.2 mmol/L. The authors used conventional spectrophotometric methods to examine the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), diene conjugates (DC), and SOD activity. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistical analysis software Statistica 10.0. Results. The most pronounced changes in the studied parameters were found in the heart of female rats with isolated GC and associated diabetes mellitus: more than a threefold increase in MDA, a significant increase in DC against the background of an increase in SOD activity (by 5.5–6.3 times in comparison to intact animals). The amount of MDA in GC tissue depended on the tumor size: the maximum increase in both parameters was observed in male rats with GC growth and associated DM. Conclusion. The changes in the content of LPO products and SOD activity in the heart, kidneys, and liver of rats with diabetes mellitus and tumor growth depend on the type of the examined tissue and the gender of the animals. Disorders of the redox status found in the heart tissue can make a significant contribution to cardiopathology, which is often observed in diabetes mellitus and malignant tumor growth. Key words: diabetes mellitus, Guerin's carcinoma, rats, combined pathology, heart, kidneys, liver, malondialdehyde, diene conjugates, superoxide dismutase. Учитывая коморбидность рака и диабета, роль свободнорадикальных процессов при этих состояниях и зависимость течения патологических процессов от пола животных, целью исследования явилось изучение интенсивности перекисного окисления липидов (ПОЛ) и активности ключевого антиоксидантного фермента супероксиддисмутазы (СОД) в сердце, почках, печени, а также в опухоли крыс разного пола при сахарном диабете (СД), карциноме Герена (КГ) и при их сочетании. Материалы и методы. В исследование были включены 80 белых нелинейных крыс обоего пола массой 180–220 г, разделенных на 4 группы по 10 животных каждого пола. На момент перевивки КГ уровень глюкозы в крови животных с аллоксановым СД составил 25,4±1,2 ммоль/л. Содержание малонового диальдегида (МДА), диеновых конъюгатов (ДК) и активность СОД исследованы общепринятыми спектрофотометрическими методами. Статистический анализ проведен с использованием программы Statistica 10.0. Результаты. Наиболее выраженные изменения изученных показателей выявлены в сердце самок при изолированной КГ и КГ, растущей на фоне СД: более чем трехкратное увеличение МДА, значимый прирост ДК на фоне повышения активности СОД в 5,5–6,3 раза относительно интактных животных. В ткани КГ прослеживалась зависимость степени выраженности увеличения содержания МДА от размеров опухоли: максимальное увеличение обоих показателей наблюдалось у самцов при росте КГ на фоне СД. Выводы. Направленность изменения содержания продуктов ПОЛ и активности СОД в сердце, почках и печени крыс при СД и опухолевом росте зависит от типа исследованной ткани и пола животных. Обнаруженные в ткани сердца нарушения редокс-статуса могут вносить значимый вклад в развитие кардиопатологии, часто наблюдаемой при СД и злокачественном росте. Ключевые слова: сахарный диабет, карцинома Герена, крысы, сочетанная патология, сердце, почки, печень, малоновый диальдегид, диеновые конъюгаты, супероксиддисмутаза.
