  • Title: [Dynamics of the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the blood of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].
    Author: Safarian MD, Karapetian ET.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1990; (8):60-1. PubMed ID: 2255703.
    Abstract:
    The given article deals with the results of analysing antioxidative enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GP) and glutathione reductase (GR) in the blood of pulmonary tuberculosis patients. It is demonstrated that with focal tuberculosis, lipid peroxidation rises, compensatory increase in SOD, GP and GR levels takes place. In infiltrative and disseminated tuberculosis, multidirectional changes of SOD, GP and GR levels are observed depending on a certain stage of the disease accompanied by an increased lipid peroxidation.
