Abstract
BACKGROUND Reduced efficiency of DNA repair systems has long been a suspected factor in increasing the risk of cancer. OBJECTIVE In this work we investigate influence of three selected polymorphisms of DNA repair gene XRCC1 and level of oxidative damage (measured as level of 8-oxo-guanine) on modulation of the risk of HNSCC. METHODS In group of 359 patients with HNSCC (diagnosed with OSCC) the occurrence of polymorphic variants in Arg399Gln, Arg280His and Arg194Trp of XRCC1 were studied with TaqMan technique. In addition we determined level of 8-oxo-guanine with ELISA. RESULTS Arg399Gln polymorphism and Arg194Trp polymorphism of XRCC1 gene increases the risk of HNSCC. The coexistence of Arg399Gln and Arg194Trp simultaneously enhances this effect. At the same time, their coexistence with His280His raises the risk to a level higher than in the absence of such coexistence, although the His280His itself is not associated with an increased risk of HNSCC. Patients have higher levels of 8-oxo-guanine than control group, and His280His is polymorphism with highest mean value of 8-oxoG level among studied. CONCLUSION Patients with HNSCC not only have an increased level of 8-oxoguanine and the Arg399Gln and Arg/Trp of XRCC1 modulate risk of cancer, but there is also a relationship between these two phenomena, and it can be explained using intragenic combinations revealing that a high level of 8-oxoG could be a potential mechanism behind the modulation of HNSCC risk by the polymorphisms studied.

Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a heterogeneous and complex disease, both from a clinical and molecular point of view. The prolonged use of alcohol and tobacco, along with the release of tumor secretions can modulate blood cells, such as erythrocytes. Here, this study was conducted with 24 patients diagnosed with HNSCC and an equal number of healthy individuals are matched by age and gender. The levels of lipid peroxidation were measured using the individual plasma, while for lipid concentrations, identification and quantification Na, K-ATPase activity and osmotic fragility, the red blood cell concentrate were used. The release of TBARS was significantly higher in patients with HNSCC. The lipid profile assays demonstrated a rearrangement of the erythrocyte membrane due to a decrease in total phospholipids and phosphatidylethanolamine followed by an increase in total cholesterol and phosphatidylcholine. Na, K-ATPase activity also increased. Erythrocytes were more fragile in patients with HNSCC than in health individuals. Therefore, the membrane of erythrocytes were rearranged and Na, K-ATPase function altered in the HNSCC patients. Our findings suggests that the alcohol, tobacco and tumor secretion modulate in a specific manner that the erythrocytes membranes of these patients making this system a potential tool for HNSCC biomarker of tumor progression.

Abstract
Background:CoQ10 is a very important compound which is found in every tissue of our organism. It participates in the processes of cellular respiration and ATP production. Also, it acts as a strong antioxidant. In an organism, it is represented in two forms: oxidized (ubiquinone) and reduced (ubiquinol). Its low blood level may be a signal for a list of diseases.Materials and Methods:This study developed and compared two methods of CoQ10 determination in order to find the fastest and the most convenient one. The first one involved HPLC-UV with the wavelength of ubiquinone determination equivalent to 290 nm and 275 nm for ubiquinol, respectively. The second one was carried out on an HPLC/MS/MS system utilizing Electrospray Ionization (ESI) and triple quadrupole mass analyzer for quantification in MRM positive mode.Results:Two methods of ubiquinol and ubiquinone determination were developed and validated. HPLC-UV included sample preparation based on liquid-liquid extraction. The LLOQ was 0.50 µg/ml. HPLC-MS/MS method sample preparation was based on protein precipitation. The LLOQ was 0.10 µg/ml.Conclusion:During the investigation, a conclusion was drawn that the HPLC-UV method is too insensitive for simultaneous determination of ubiquinol and ubiquinone. Furthermore, ubiquinol is very unstable and during exogenous factors’ exposure, it rapidly turns into ubiquinone. While, the HPLCMS/ MS method turned out to be sensitive, selective, rapid as it provides an accurate determination of both forms of CoQ10 in spiked human plasma.

Abstract
Considering the great energy and biomass demand for cell survival, cancer cells exhibit unique metabolic signatures compared to normal cells. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most prevalent neoplasms worldwide. Recent findings have shown that environmental challenges, as well as intrinsic metabolic manipulations, could modulate HNSCC experimentally and serve as clinic prognostic indicators, suggesting that a better understanding of dynamic metabolic changes during HNSCC development could be of great benefit for developing adjuvant anti-cancer schemes other than conventional therapies. However, the following questions are still poorly understood: (i) how does metabolic reprogramming occur during HNSCC development? (ii) how does the tumorous milieu contribute to HNSCC tumourigenesis? and (iii) at the molecular level, how do various metabolic cues interact with each other to control the oncogenicity and therapeutic sensitivity of HNSCC? In this review article, the regulatory roles of different metabolic pathways in HNSCC and its microenvironment in controlling the malignancy are therefore discussed in the hope of providing a systemic overview regarding what we knew and how cancer metabolism could be translated for the development of anti-cancer therapeutic reagents.
