GSR and neoplasm: The mass of the right gastrocnemius was positively correlated: firstly, with the masses of adipose tissue (total, inguinal and visceral) and with the masses of the leg muscles (right and left); secondly, with the production of IL-6 in the right gastrocnemius; thirdly, with different tumour oxidative protection markers (protein thiols, total and reduced glutathione amount, glutathione S-transferase and glutathione reductase activity, heme oxygenase and glutathione peroxidase activity) as well as two oxidative stress markers which were total COXs and COX-1.
