Abstract:We studied the state of the thiol-disulfide system (contents of reduced and oxidized glutathione, their ratio, and concentrations of protein SH-groups and protein-bound glutathione) and functional properties of neutrophils (production of hydroxyl radicals, IL-8, and TNF-α and myeloperoxidase activity) from healthy donors under conditions of oxidative stress in vitro induced by H(2)O(2)in a final concentration of 200 μM and from patients with community-acquired pneumonia. We evaluated the role of reduced and pr… Show more
