Determination of some visfatin hormone level and lipid profilein some breast cancer patients in Samarra city

Abstract: Our study aimed to estimate visfatin hormone levels and lipid profile levels in some patients. The study group included 20 women with breast cancer and a control group of 10 healthy women. The hormonal and biochemical assays include visfatin hormone, total cholesterol (TC), TGS, LDL-C, HDL-C, and VLVL-C. The results showed a significant increase at (P≥0.05) in visfatin, TC, TGS, LDL-C, and VLDL-C in breast cancer patients compared to the control group, while HDL-C didn't show any significant difference between… Show more

“…Both triglycerides, total cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol were determined by enzymatic method. [12][13][14] Friedewald formula was used in the calculation of LDL-Cholesterol and (VLDL). 15,16 BMI was calculated as (weight in kg/height in m 2 ).…”

“…Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), a water-soluble vitamin, is an essential nutrient, that exerts a reducing and antioxidant effect, which scavenges free radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress, acts as an as an essential co-factor for the hydroxylation of proline and lysine which is vital to collagen biosynthesis in connective tissue, and probably reduce insulin resistance by improved endothelial function and lowering oxidative stress (35)(36)(37) . It is structurally similar to glucose and can replace it in many chemical reactions and thus is effective for prevention of nonenzymatic glycosylation of protein (38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44)(45) .…”

“…However, serum lipids in humans have been the subject of numerous recent research investigating the effects of zinc supplementation. However, the outcomes were not consistent (15,16,18) The concentration of triglyceride in a sample may be determined by measuring the absorbance of the colored complex (quinoneimine) at 500 nm.…”
