Only a few research has been carried on the topic molecular mechanism of MT. Recent research points to its significant relationship to carcinogenesis, spontaneous mutagenesis, and the effectiveness of antitumor drugs. Increased level of MT is studied as a potential indicator of increased metabolic activity in cancer. Electrochemical methods are a suitable analytical tool for MT detection. Temperature-denatured blood serum samples of patients diagnosed with cancer were studied using electrochemical analysis (Brdička's reaction). The obtained voltammograms were evaluated as the area under the curve (AUC response). To compare normal and abnormal MT levels, control serum of healthy probands (n = 38) with an average MT amount of 2.2 µg L–1, median 2.1 µg L–1 was used. In all evaluated blood serum samples of cancer patients (n = 228), the average amount of MT was 22.7 µg L–1, and the median was 18.1 µg L–1. The difference (10-fold) between groups was highly statistically significant. The data obtained from the pilot experiment suggest that the levels of thiol compounds such as MT may have clinical potential in cancer patients.","PeriodicalId":9766,"journal":{"name":"Chemicke Listy","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135437371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The success of MCED depends on the optimization of several parameters, including duty cycle, voltage, frequency, electrolyte concentration, anode movement speed, anode shape, electrolyte circulation, and additives. Porosity, structure, hardness, yield strength, and composition are the critical factors that determine the quality of deposited structures. This article summarizes the effects of various factors on the outcome of the MCED process, which involves controlled deposition of voxels to create an object. Optimizing these parameters can lead to high-quality structures with good resolution and size. The article points out the relationship between these factors and the resulting properties of the deposited object, which may be useful for future research in this area. It also points to different types of approaches for the preparation of these structures through electrochemical additive manufacturing (ECAM) and its detailed mechanism.","PeriodicalId":9766,"journal":{"name":"Chemicke Listy","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135437374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
