Abstract
Prostate cancer (Pc) is the most frequent neoplasia in men and the second
cause of death in Brazil.
To analyze the interactions and biologicals responses of Pc oxidative stress and prostatespecific
antigen (PSA), E-cadherin and MMP-13. Demonstrate whether the increase of the amount of
the form of E-cadherin found in the plasma of Pc patients, correlates with decrease of the PSA.
Samples were obtained through peripheral venipuncture to analyse parameters of biomarkers
pc as PSA, E-cadherin, MMP-13, Homocysteine, Folic acid, Vitamin B12, Testosterone T and free following
the patients diagnosis, 3 and 6 months during their treatment to analyze the biological responses
of Pc oxidative stress.
The analysis was performed by using immunoenzymatic assay. Statistical data processed
through Excel in Windows Vista and analyzed through the Shapiro-wilk Test, ANOVA, and Spearman
Test. An increase in the concentration of E-cadherin (p = 0.02), as a decrease in concentration of PSA
(p < 0.001), total testosterone (p < 0.001) and free testosterone (p = 0.02) was observed during the
treatment period without significant alterations in the remaining markers for either of the periods.
It was found that during treatment of men diagnosed with pc that there was an an increase
in the concentration of plasmatic E-cadherin, which was negatively correlated with the concentrations
of folic acid (-0,03 (0,87) rs (p). It was observed that the levels of hcy are positively correlated with
concentrations of total testosterone and a negative correlation. Vitamins B12 remained within the parameters
of normality during the entire study.
P.S.A levels were free and total testosterone levels decreased. In this way, monitoring the
folic acid, E-cadherin dosages of patients during the treatment phases can effectively complement in the
face of remission, since it would be a way of preventing abnormal cell replications, with a clinical view
prudent so that the cell methylation cycle is not affected.
