| Abstract: | Forty cases of head and neck cancer were studied for plasma superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde and thiol levels and results
were compared with a group of forty normal healthy volunteers. Mean plasma superoxide dismutase activity was not found to
be altered while malondialdehyde concentration was significantly higher when compared with the control group. On the other
hand, mean thiol level was significantly lowered. The data suggests increased level of oxidative stress in patients with head
and neck cancer. |
