Oxidative Stress Markers in COPD
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Background:Striking feature of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is its inability to resolve after cigarette smoke exposure has ended, which has contributed to the possibility that the disease could also be driven by other endogenous causes, such as autoimmunity or chronic infection . Many of the pathogenetic pathways involved in COPD and its development tend to be driven by oxidative stress.
