Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide. NK and cytotoxic T cells play an important role in the elimination of virus-infected and tumor cells through NKG2D activating receptors, which can promote the lysis of target cells by binding to the major histocompatibility complex class I-related chain A (MICA) proteins. Increased serum levels of MICA have been found in patients with epithelial tumors. The aim of this study was to compare the levels of soluble MICA (sMICA) and NKG2D-expressing NK and T cells in blood samples from patients with cervical cancer or precursor lesions with those from healthy donors.

The data presented underline the correlation between the liver damage severity evaluated by LFT and the nutritional status estimated by anthropometric indicators. In our view these observations reflect the close relationship between liver function and the degree of liver damage to growth and current nutritional status.
