The Changes of NADH Fluorescennce peaks intensities tumor tissue of prostate (440-460 nm)

2- Prostate Benign Hyperplasia with PING3-4 regions;

3- Prostate Cancer.

Conclusion

• Sharply Increased intensity of the Nicotinamide Coenzymes peak

(440-460 nm) in benign prostate tumor with PING3-4 regions and in

prostate adenocarcinoma compared with benign tumor tissue spectra,

reflects the type of metabolism that is typical to prostate malignant tumor

cells.

The sharp increase in SD activity presumably indicates on the enhanced electrons flow in respiratory chain of mitochondria.

The Activity of Cytochromeoxidase

The insignificant changes in COX activity presumably indicates on the low level of terminal oxidation.

Thus, - Sharp increase of the activity of SDH (complex II); - Insignificant changes of COX (complex IV) activity ;

These changes Presumably indicates to activation of Krebs cycle in mitochondria and increase of electrons flow in respiration chain on the one hand, and to impairment of the terminal oxidation of oxygen, on the other.

Thus, sharp activation of mitochondrial antioxidant system, (GSH-Px, GR) revealed in BHP with PING(3-4) regions and malignant tumor epithelial cells, indicates to intensification of defensive abilities of tumor cells. (to withstand switching of the mitochondrial way of apoptosis, induced by free radicals).

Thus, stimulation of the activity of SDH and retention of COX activity in epithelial cells of prostate malignant tissue may be responsible for sharp activation of isocitrate dehydrogenase and correspondingly, for significant accumulation of NADP(H).

Laser Induced Fluorescence spectra have shown the incresead intensity of NADP(H) peak in case of malignant tumor tissue that corresponds with investigations in Mitochondria of tumor epithelial cells.

Accumulation of NADP(H). may stipulate a sharp activation of the glutathione-depended system, which was proved by our investigations. Activation of the GSH-dependent system (GSH-Px, GR) presumably would be responsible for resistance of cancer cells against the oxidative stress.

Changes in the activity of enzymes of the II and IV complexes of mitochondrial respiration chain and antioxidant system, in case of prostate malignant trabsformation, are reflection of specific metabolic changes in mitochondria.

All the Above mentioned indicates to resistance of prostate malignant cells and correspondingly, to intensification of proliferation processes.
