Serum and RBCs Glutathione Reductase (GSSG-Red) Activity in Breast Tumors of Iraqi Women

Abstract

AbstractBreast tumor patients generally have more oxidative stress than normal females. This was clear from non significant (P>0.05) decrease in RBCs GSSG-Red but there was significant decrease (P<0.05) in serum GSSG-Red activity. The study had found that free radicals in malignant breast tumors were higher than benign tumors, therefore the activity of GSSG- Red might be used as markers for prognosis of the disease through previouse studies and present study.
