title: [Oxidants and antioxidants: another look at the pathogenesis of pulmonary emphysema].
abstract: The protease--antiprotease theory of the lung emphysema was enriched with the new information about the role of oxidants in the emphysema production. An effect of the cigarette smoke (the main source of oxidants) on the lung environment is broadly discussed in this paper.
