Hematological malignancies present abnormal blood cells thatmay have altered functions. This study aimed to evaluatenutritional status, acute phase proteins, parameters of cell’sfunctionality, and oxidative stress of patients with hematologicalmalignancies, providing a representation of these variables atdiagnosis, comparisons between leukemias and lymphomas andestablishing correlations. Nutritional status, C-reactive protein(CRP), albumin, phagocytic capacity and superoxide anionproduction of mononuclear cells, lipid peroxidation and catalaseactivity in plasma were evaluated in 16 untreated subjects. Maindiagnosis was acute leukemia (n D 9) and median body massindex (BMI) indicated overweight (25.6 kg/m2). Median albuminwas below (3.2 g/dL) and CRP above (37.45 mg/L) the referencevalues. Albumin was inversely correlated with BMI (r D ¡0.53).Most patients were overweight before the beginning of treatmentand had a high CRP/albumin ratio, which may indicate anutrition inflammatory risk. BMI values correlated positivelywith lipid peroxidation and catalase activity. A strong correlationbetween catalase activity and lipid peroxidation was found (r D0.75). Besides the elevated BMI, these patients also have elevatedCRP values and unexpected relations between nutritional statusand albumin, reinforcing the need for nutritional counselingduring the course of chemotherapy, especially considering the
correlations between oxidative stress parameters and nutritionalstatus evidenced here.
INTRODUCTION
Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled growth of cells
which might invade tissues and metastasize to distant sites,
causing the host morbidity and, in some cases, death (1).
Hematological malignancies are usually initiated in blood-
forming or immune-related tissues, which start to produce
abnormal cells. The most prevalent diseases in such group are
leukemias and lymphomas. In individuals with leukemia, leu-
kocytes do not perform adequately normal functions and cells
remain for a longer time in the bloodstream. Leukemias can be
divided into chronic and acute forms. The former is character-
ized by slower development and gradual worsening of cell
functions, whereas acute leukemia is characterized by a rapid
increase of abnormal cells in the bloodstream. Lymphomas
can be divided into Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s,
malignant diseases of the lymphatic system, also considered
hematological malignancies (2).
Mononuclear cells are a heterogeneous group of leukocytes
with several distinct functions. The interaction among them is
responsible for many attributes of the immune system. As an
example, monocytes are recruited to tissues to promote death
of pathogens through the release of reactive oxygen (ROS)

and nitrogen species, phagocytosis of microorganisms and cell
debris, and also to perform antigen presentation to T cells, trig-
gering a specific defense both against microorganisms and, in
some cases, neoplastic cells. As the functionality of one or sev-
eral immune cells can be altered in hematological malignan-
cies, it is difficult to foresee how such cells are operating in
these diseases (3,4).
Production of ROS and antioxidant enzymes activity are
also altered in patients with hematological malignancies (5).
When not properly neutralized by antioxidant enzymes, reac-
tive species can trigger the formation of chain reactions with
polyunsaturated fatty acids present in the cells’ membrane
lipid bilayer, a process called lipid peroxidation (6). However,
the production of ROS may exert different actions on prolifer-
ation or survival of cells. Although oxidative stress is com-
monly discussed as an important character in carcinogenesis,
malignant cells are also usually sensitive to lipid peroxidation
products (7). Therefore, it is important to know how some of
these parameters are established in these diseases.
Besides the issues regarding cells functionality and the bal-
ance between oxidative stress and antioxidant systems, the
nutritional state is an additional relevant clinical aspect in can-
cer patients. Especially during the course of treatment, acute
phase proteins can be altered as well as the nutritional state
which can be negatively affected, compromising the prognosis
and survival of these patients (8,9). Therefore, to know the
pretreatment nutritional state in such diseases might be an
effective strategy to foreseen, at least in part, the capacity of
the subject in resisting the aggressiveness of the therapeutic
process. Furthermore, the relation between the pretreatment
nutritional state and mononuclear cells functionality is not
completely known in hematological malignancies.
Considering the functionality of mononuclear cells and oxi-
dative stress in hematological malignancies, the relevance of
these parameters and the unknown relations of them with the
pre-treatment nutritional state in these diseases, this study
aimed these parameters in leukemia and lymphoma patients.
In addition, differences among these variables between both
diagnosis and correlations were assayed.
METHODS
This is a descriptive study of the patients diagnosed with
hematological malignancies at the University Hospital of the
Federal University of Santa Catarina, before initiating chemo-
therapy treatment, recruited between November 2012 and
April 2013. All procedures involving human subjects were
approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee of the
Federal University of Santa Catarina. Inclusion criteria were
16 yr or more, hematological malignancy diagnosis, and indi-
cation of chemotherapy treatment. Exclusion criteria included
palliative care, radiotherapy, impossibility of oral ingestion, a
diagnosis of infectious disease, and treatment that included
statins and/or antiinflammatory medicines. All recruited
patients, who accepted to participate, gave written informed
consent. Data collection was performed at the University Hos-
pital of the Federal University of Santa Catarina. At study
entry, anthropometric data were collected and a blood sample
taken, immediately prior to initiating chemotherapy. Nutri-
tional status, C-reactive protein (CRP), and albumin were
assessed. Mononuclear cells’ functions were assessed by
phagocytosis of zymosan and superoxide anion production. To
