title: [FEATURES OF OXIDATIVE STRESS IN THE BLOOD AND THE SYNOVIAL FLUID ASSOCIATED WITH KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS].
abstract: The features of regulation of free radical oxidation in the blood and the synovial fluid have been studied in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The data were obtained from 46 patients with primary knee osteoarthritis (II-III Kellgren-Lawrence grade, aged 63.26 ± 9.18) and 27 healthy controls. It was defined that the blood plasma was characterized by increased superoxide-eliminating activity and a tendency to the increasing of nitrite/nitrate concentration (nitrosative stress biomarkers). The erythrocytes were measured to have the increased concentration of malondialdehyde (secondary product of lipid peroxidation), activation of superoxide dismutase, gIutathione-S-transferase and reduced glutathione peroxidase activity and glutathione content. The peripheral blood mononuclear fraction of patients with osteoarthritis was characterized by significant activation of superoxide dismutase and glutathione-S- transferase, moderate catalase activation, non-significant glutathione peroxidase activity alterations and increased activity of xanthine oxidoreductase and myeloperoxidase. Finally redox-balance disturbance in the mononuclear cells leaded to oxidative stress development, which promoted lymphocytes apoptosis.
