Evaluation of Systemic Antioxidant Level and Oxidative Stress In Relation to Lifestyle and Disease Progression in Asthmatic Patients/ Evaluacija nivoa antioksidanasa i oksidativnog stresa u sistemu u odnosu na životni stil i progresiju bolesti kod obolelih od astme

Abstract: SummaryBackgroundAsthma is a chronic disorder of the airways. Oxidative stress is an important part of asthma pathogenesis. It plays a crucial role in exacerbating the disease, as well as an important consequence of airways inflammation.AimThe present study was undertaken to investigate the lipid peroxidation and catalase activity in serum and antioxidant level in plasma of asthmatic patients and their association with lifestyle and severity of the disease.MethodsA total of 210 subjects, 120 asthmatics and 90 … Show more

“…ROS reaction with various biomolecules such as proteins, lipids, and DNA may cause cell injury, leading to apoptosis and necrosis [ 28 , 65 , 66 ]. Serum concentrations of antioxidants have been shown to correlate positively with FEV 1 in patients with COPD, and supplementation with antioxidants such as vitamin C improves the symptoms of the disease [ 64 , 67 , 68 ].…”

“…This neuropathy is suspected to occur due to activation of latent HVS viral infection or an autoimmune reaction. However, the exact events leading to this inflammation remain unknown ( 3 , 5 , 8 , 15 ). It is likely that the increased OS levels observed herein may play a role in the development of BP.…”

“…Asthmatic current smokers showed increased serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreased levels of the ferric-reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) [ 37 ]. Higher MDA levels in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) have been reported in active smoking asthmatics than in their ex-smoking and nonsmoking counterparts [ 38 ].…”
