The Study of Some Antioxidant Markers, Malondialdehyde and C - reactive protein in Suckling Women

Abstract

This study aims to find out the role of some antioxidants markers ( Glutathione GSH and superoxide dismutase SOD ) , malondialdehyde ( MDA ) and C-reactive protein ( CRP ) in suckling women .The whole sample is about 120 women ( aged 25-35 years) , included 60 suckling women and 60 non-suckling . Each of these both suckling and non - suckling women divided into three groups ( 20 women / group ) according to the periods of suckling as the following : First group ( six months) ,
Second group (twelve months) , Third group ( eighteen months) . Results revealed : GSH and SOD levels decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in non - suckling women in comparison with the suckling women for different groups . MDA levels increased significantly(p ≤ 0.05) in non - suckling women in comparison with the suckling women for different groups . CRP increased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in non-suckling women in comparison with the suckling women for different groups . The physiological impacts for these changes be discussed according to the role of suckling and their positive effects on those women related with these current parameters .
