Introduction and objective: Back pain are the most common ailment within the human locomotor system. Because of their prevalence, they were classified as diseases of civilization. The aim of the study was to attempt to assess the concentration of selected amino acids in plasma and correlating the results of laboratory tests with the occurrence of backaches. Material and method: The study group included 188 patients presenting for CT scan administering as the cause of their symptoms low back pains. All of these patients gave the blood samples from which the concentration of free amino acids was estimated by ion exchange chromatography using an automated amino acid analyzer AAA 4-00 from INGOS Praha. The control group consisted of patients who underwent testing using computed tomography and there were no primary or secondary changes associated with degeneration in the lumbar spine. Results: Patients on the basis of research carried out by computed tomography were divided into five groups according to disease entity. Analyzing the average concentration of essential amino acids in the blood plasma of patients of each group, it was found that it is higher in the case of lysine for each considered disease entity. The average concentration of methionine in all disease entities does not deviate from the average values in the control group. Analysis of the average concentration of selected essential amino acids revealed that in the case presented disorders underwent their level of variation. Average concentrations of selected amino acids have proven to be very similar in both groups. Slightly higher values proved to be in the control group for proline and lysine. Conclusions: The concentration of amino acids varies with the severity of degenerative changes in the connections as well as in interbody joints. The highest increase in the concentrations of all tested amino acids are present in root bands. Decrease in the concentrations of all tested amino acids appears in cancer.
