The aim of this study was to investigate the serum levels or activities of oxidative stress markers in patients with schizophrenia in acute phase and evaluate the changes in superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione (GSH) and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) after treatment. We consecutively enrolled 41 patients with schizophrenia in acute phase, and 27 patients were followed up with a 4-week antipsychotic treatment. Serum oxidative stress markers were measured with assay kits. We found that Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total scores were significantly negatively correlated with serum GPx activity and GSH levels and positively correlated with serum SOD activity in patients with schizophrenia in acute phase. In addition, serum GPx activity had a positive correlation with GSH levels and negative correlation with SOD activity. We also found that serum SOD activity was significantly negatively correlated with TBARS levels in patients in acute phase. Furthermore, we found significantly increased changes only in GPx activity in female patients receiving the 4-week treatment (P=0.006). In conclusion, our results suggest that SOD, GPX and GSH might be indicators of schizophrenia severity in acute phase. Furthermore, antipsychotic drugs might affect serum GPx activity in female patients receiving the 4-week treatment.
