- Abstract
-
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In this longitudinal study changes in the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), an end product of polyunsaturated fatty acid peroxidation, were investigated in the airways of patients with acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD).
