[Correction of biochemical and immunological indices in colonic cancer using optimal doses of retinyl acetate and ascorbic acid].
Blood plasma retinol level in normal donors and patients with colonic carcinoma was measured by high-pressure liquid chromatography and the concentration of p-hydroxyphenyl lactic and homogentizine acids by Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer MAT-311A using 2H4-p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid as internal reference. The functional activity of lymphocytes was estimated from the proliferative response to alloantigens in a one-way mixed lymphocyte culture and in blast transformation reaction to Con A and pokeweed mitogen. After systematic intake of retinyl acetate and ascorbic acid in optimally high doses, the patients manifested an increase in vitamin C level in plasma and lymphocytes and a lowering of p-hydroxyphenyl lactic acid excretion. Blood plasma retinol remained unchanged. Daily intake of retinyl acetate and ascorbic acid for 8-12 days produced a significant increase of lymphocyte proliferation in response to alloantigens in mixed lymphocyte culture and blast transformation reaction to suboptimal mitogen doses.
