Formation of atherosclerotic plaques is the major cause of coronary artery disease (CAD). Several lines of study have revealed the role of oxidative stress in CAD pathogenesis. In the present study the aim was to investigate the oxidative and antioxidative markers in CAD patients and a control population. The study sample comprised of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients, chronic CAD patients and healthy controls (n=30/group). Blood samples of patients and control subjects were collected to measure the concentrations of reduced glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA) and the percentage of MDA release as well as the activity of erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of plasma. All parameters were measured by spectrophotometric methods. Additionally, oxidant/antioxidant status was compared between CAD patients with single, double or triple-vessel stenosis and in comparison with controls. The results indicated a significant increase in MDA level and the percentage of MDA release (P
