Abstract
Erythrocyte membranes were examined by fluorescent probing in untreated patients with tumors of different localization (lung cancer, head and neck tumors, stomach and colorectal cancer). Tumor growth was associated with pronounced disorders in erythrocyte membranes: increased viscosity of the lipid bilayer, including protein-lipid contacts, and modification membrane surface layers. The degree of changes in the studied parameters depended on the tumor location.
