Activities of antioxidant enzymes and concentrations of selected oxidative stress biomarkers in synovial membranes of patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis
Abstract:Introduction:Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative process of multifactor etiology, still largely unexplained. The activity of antioxidant enzymes and concentration of lipid peroxidation products in synovial membrane can be indirectly inferred from its oxidation-reduction status. The role of synovial membrane in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis is relatively poorly understood, probably due to the difficulties in the acquisition of the material.
Aim of the research:We sought to understand the association b… Show more
