Abstract excerpt
The superoxide dismutases (SODs) seem to be the most important enzymes involved in defense against reactive oxygen species, in particular against superoxide anion radicals. We hypothesized that genetic variability of antioxidant enzymes may have a role in development of these complications. The objective of the present study was to examine the association between polymorphisms 239+34A/C in the SOD1 gene or 47C/T...
