Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers as well as one of the leading causes of cancer mortality in women worldwide. Cancer risk potentially continues to increase because of the many sources of exposure to carcinogenic chemical compounds. Carcinogenic compounds can contribute to free radical formation which might further interact and damage biomolecules such as lipids. Lipid peroxidation will increase malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, triggering gene mutations that leads to cancer.  Objective: The purpose of this research was to measure and compare MDA levels between breast cancer patients and control.Methods: This research was observational research using a cross-sectional comparative design of 30 breast cancer patients and 30 healthy controls. The place of this research is in Ropanasuri specialized surgery hospital and biochemical laboratory,  Faculty of Medicine, Andalas University, Padang. This research was conducted from August to September 2019. The MDA was measured using a spectrophotometer and an independent T-test was done.Results: The result of this research showed the mean MDA level of breast cancer patients was 3.98 ± 0.35 nmol/ml, higher than controls was 3.04 ± 0.36 nmol/ml with p-value = 0.001.Conclusion: There were significant differences in MDA levels among breast cancer patients and control in Ropanasuri specialized surgery hospital, Padang.

Chemotherapy drugs used to kill or inhibit proliferation of cancer cell that are cytotoxic and causing side effect for breast cancer patients. The side effect of chemotherapy drugs is decreasing the appetite which causing decrease in energy and protein intake, and could affect nutritional status. This study aim to determine the relationship between appetite with energy and protein intake of post chemotherapy breast cancer patients. This research was an analytic observational research using cross sectional design and purposive sampling conducted at Dr. Ramelan Navy Hospital Surabaya with a sample size of 50 patients. Correlation between appetite with energy and protein intake were analyzed using Pearson correlation. The average of energy and protein intake were 976.3±304.2 kcal and 29.4±12.9 g. Pearson correlation test showed signifi cant correlation between appetite as chemoteraphy side effect with energy intake (p=0.000; r=-0.558) and protein intake (p=0.000; r=-0.504). Decreasing of appetite due to chemoterapy reduce the energy and protein intake of breast cancer patient.

Background: Immunohistochemical testing is important in determining clinical diagnosis and therapy, and is useful as a prognostic and predictive factor, but it is not easy to do and is not always available. Breast cancer patient with higher low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-c]. level tends to have larger tumor size, higher grade, higher proliferation rate, positive Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor-2 (HER2-neu) and occasionally come at late stage. High LDL-c receptors are found on the surface of breast cancer cells, where cancer cells will take up cholesterol in serum, and a metabolite of 27-hydroxycholesterol cholesterol will affect Estrogen Receptor-α. Methods: Analytical observational study by cross sectional method, during July 2020 – November 2020, at Oncology Clinic Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya with a total sample size of 42. The data obtained were analyzed using the SPSS version 23.0 program, regression test and Chi-Square were performed for characteristic analysis and Chi-Square Fischer’s Exact Test were performed for correlation test between lipid profiles with hormonal status. Results: The mean value of LDL-c was 117.88 ± 33.89 mg/dL. In the analysis of the correlation between LDL-c and hormonal status, it was found that the majority of patients who had positive hormonal status had LDL-c levels of ≤160 mg/dL with p value = 0.049. ROC analysis shown LDL-c cut-off point of 132 mg/dL, p value = 0.034 (OR 5.031, 95% CI 1.159-21.848), sensitivity 46.7% and specificity 83.35%. Conclusion: There is a statistically significant relationship between LDL-c levels and hormonal status with the cut-off point of 132 mg/dL. The increase in LDL-c in serum increases the tendency of negative hormonal status, therefore LDL-c levels can be considerate in determining the therapy for breast cancer patients.

BACKGROUND: AGR2 expression is associated with luminal breast cancer. Overexpression of AGR2 is a predictor of poor prognosis. Several studies have found correlations between AGR2 in disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) in breast cancer patients. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to determine the correlation between anterior Gradient2 (AGR2) expression with the incidence of distant metastases in luminal breast cancer. METHODS: This study was an observational study using a cross-sectional method and was conducted at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital and the network. ELISA methods examine AGR2 expression from blood serum of breast cancer patients. To compare the AGR2 expression in metastatic patients and the non-metastatic patient was tested with Mann Whitney test. The correlation of AGR2 expression and metastasis was tested with the Rank Spearman test. RESULTS: The mean value of AGR2 antibody expression on ELISA in this study was 2.90 ± 1.82 ng/dl, and its cut-off point was 2.1 ng/dl. Based on this cut-off point value, 14 subjects (66.7%) had overexpression of AGR2 serum ELISA, and 7 subjects (33.3%) had not. The mean value AGR2 was significantly higher in metastatic than not metastatic, 3.77 versus 1.76 (p < 0.01). The Spearman rank test obtained a p-value for the 2 tail test of 0.003 (p < 0.05), which showed a significant correlation of both, while the correlation coefficient of 0.612 showed a strong positive correlation of AGR2 overexpression and metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: AGR2 expression is correlated with metastasis in Luminal breast cancer.
