dc.description.abstract | The total oxidative status (TOS)/total anti-oxidative status (TAS) ratio can provide information on an individual's absolute oxidative stress index (OSI). We investigated the alterations in the oxidant-antioxidant balance by measuring the oxidant parameters OSI, TOS, and malondialdehyde (MDA) together with the antioxidant parameters such as TAS, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (MS). To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate OSI in patients with relapsing remitting MS. 35 ambulatory patients with relapsing-remitting MS (35.8 +/- A 8.7 years) and 32 age- and activity-matched healthy control subjects (35.1 +/- A 3.7 years) that participated in the study. Serum TAS and TOS levels were determined using new automated methods. MS patients had higher concentrations of MDA (151.5 +/- A 51.1 vs. 111.3 +/- A 27.4 nmol/g protein, respectively; p < 0.001), TOS (148.1 +/- A 162.5 vs. 48.3 +/- A 46.4 mmol H2O2 Equiv./g protein, respectively; p = 0.002), OSI (21124 +/- A 32543 vs. 5294 +/- A 5562, respectively; p = 0.008), and SOD (4.5 +/- A 0.7 vs. 3.4 +/- A 0.6 U/L, respectively; p < 0.001) compared with healthy controls. On the other hand, MS patients had lower concentrations of NO (12.3 +/- A 6.9 vs. 17.4 +/- A 2.5 mu mol/g protein, respectively; p < 0.001) and TAS (0.82 +/- A 0.27 vs. 0.26 +/- A 0.15, respectively; p = 0.011) compared with healthy controls. In conclusion, these findings indicate that the oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of MS. | en_US |
