title: [Oxidative stress and its significance in prostate diseases].
abstract: The disturbed balance between production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) and efficiency of antioxydative systems leads to oxidative stress. This may be the cause of permanent biomolecules' damage. The results of many researches show dependence between disturbance in oxidative balance. And oxidative damage in prostate cells. However no clear evidence have been found that oxidative stress may lead to development of prostate cancer.
