Increased oxidative stress and its relation with collagen metabolism in
knee osteoarthritis.

Rheumatol Int. 2006 Nov 10;
The purpose of this study was to determine serum
oxidative/antioxidative status in patients with knee osteoarthritis and
its relation with prolidase activity, which plays an important role in
collagen metabolism. Serum antioxidative status was evaluated by
measuring total antioxidant capacity (TAC), thiol level and catalase
enzyme activity in patients with osteoarthritis and in healthy
controls. Serum oxidative status was evaluated by measuring total
peroxide (TP) and lipid hydroperoxide. Oxidative stress index (OSI) was
calculated. Prolidase enzyme activity was measured to investigate the
collagen metabolism. Serum TAC, thiol level, catalase activity and
prolidase activity were significantly lower in patients than in
controls (P < 0.001, for all). In contrast, TP, lipid hydroperoxide and
OSI values were significantly higher in patients than in controls (P <
0.001 for all). Further, prolidase activity was negatively correlated
with TP and OSI, and positively correlated with TAC. The present
results indicate that the oxidant parameters increased and antioxidant
parameters decreased in patients with osteoarthritis; therefore, these
patients may be exposed to a potent oxidative stress. Decreased
collagen metabolism may be related with oxidative stress, which has a
role in the ethiopathogenesis and/or in the progression of the disease.

All I've seen of your .. contributions .. seem to be the attempted ..
DISRUPTION ..
THIS time you've taken to .. what .. ?
Convince your .. fellow .. arthritis .. SUFFERERS .. that the study of
oxidative stress IN .. this osteoarthritis ... is .. NOT ..
'noteworthy' .. and should NOT be .. investigated .. ?
Is that .. right .. chief .. ?
How's the health .. plan ..
Paying for all your drugs .. still .. ?
Thirty years .. now .. ?
Nobody needs YOUR .. input / disruption .. ya .. fkg .. dig .. ?
Don't whatever you do use .. aspirin ... Indomethacin .. Sulphasalazine
... or any of the OTHER iron binding drugs .. you .. piece of sht .. and
then TELL .. all your 'pals' .. NOT to .. ALSO target the oxidative
stress by using NATURAL iron binding .. substances .. WHEN .. you ..
have the nice and cozy .. drugs up to your ears .. health .. plan ..
Beeeecause .. ?
That would make you an asshle ..
You wouldn't like to be known as an asshle .. would ya .. chief .. ?
Who loves ya.
