The intensity of ascorbate-dependent free radical oxidation of endogenous lipids in malignant tumor tissue of human kidneys was studied. The LPO induction period was markedly increased in renal-cell carcinoma and malignant mesenchymal tumors compared to normal renal cortex. The content of alpha-tocopherol in cancer tissue lipids was considerably (7-fold) increased compared to that in normal renal cortex, which explains high antioxidant activity of these carcinomas. A less pronounced increase in the content of alpha -tocopherol in lipids of malignant mesenchymal tumors compared to the cortex (2-fold) can also contribute to their LPO resistance.

D005609 Free Radicals Highly reactive molecules with an unsatisfied electron valence pair. Free radicals are produced in both normal and pathological processes. Free radicals include reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). They are proven or suspected agents of tissue damage in a wide variety of circumstances including radiation, damage from environment chemicals, and aging. Natural and pharmacological prevention of free radical damage is being actively investigated. Free Radical
