Abstract
Our aim is to study the content of tryptophan metabolites in blood serum and feces in patients with NSCLC for further estimation of possible correction of microbiomes` functional state and its role in the providence of the efficiency of treatment. The levels of tryptophan metabolites in blood serum and feces of 100 patients with NSCLC in comparison with 100 healthy donors were studied. A number of differences were obtained: in serum of patients a statistically significant decrease in the levels of tryptophan, its` dominant metabolites of microbiotic origin - tryptamine, serotonin, downtrend for xanthurenic acid along with an increase of the levels of quinolinic acid (in tendency). In feces the levels of indole in patients had an uptrend in comparison with donors. We consider that the decrease of tryptophan and its` dominant metabolites in serum of patients with NSCLC may be due to the utilization of tryptophan by tumor cells.
