The distribution of breast, colon, gastric, thyroid, oral, rectal, pancreatic and @entity703 were determined in 71 @entity3207 , 45 other Arabs, and 26 Indians. Plasma levels of micronutrient antioxidants, @entity904 , @entity1881 , @entity14319 , and @entity2066 were measured in the groups and in 90 matched controls for comparison. @entity165 was measured to determine its association with the micronutrient antioxidants. @entity788 occurred exclusively in @entity3207 , while breast and @entity694 were disproportionately higher in @entity3207 than in the other groups. Micronutrient antioxidant levels were similar in the groups, except for higher @entity14319 levels in @entity3207 . In most instances, the micronutrient antioxidants, except @entity2066 , decreased significantly in levels in @entity1 than in controls. Low levels of @entity904 , @entity14319 , and @entity2066 were strongly associated with @entity788 . Compared to controls, significantly increased levels of @entity2066 occurred in breast, colon, thyroid, and @entity703 ; increased @entity14319 occurred in @entity5 , and increased @entity1881 occurred in @entity788 . @entity1881 strongly correlated with @entity165 . Generally, changes in @entity1881 / @entity165 ratios mimicked those of @entity1881 levels. Micronutrient antioxidant levels were significantly lower in male @entity1 than female @entity1 . Age showed a negative but statistically insignificant relationship with micronutrient antioxidants. @entity14319 strongly correlated with @entity2077 and @entity1881 with @entity904 . Among the @entity1 , all micronutrient antioxidants except @entity904 decreased significantly in levels in smokers than nonsmokers, suggesting susceptibility to cigarette smoke oxidative stress. We conclude that micronutrient antioxidant depletions and altered associations may @entity5 utilization or antioxidant burden in oxidative stress or both. Furthermore, the incidence of @entity0 among @entity3207 warrants further study.
