Antioxidant enzymes and vitamins in Down's syndrom

Pathophysiology, 1994
Abstract Twenty-two children with Donw's syndrome and 25 age-matched control children were examined to determine their levels of antioxidant enzymes and vitamins. Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD), Mn-SOD, glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and catalase were studied as antioxidant enzymes, while α-tocopherol, β-carotene, and retinol were studied as ...
