Abstract
We report here an analysis of measures of the intensification of lipid peroxidation and the state of the non-enzymatic and enzymatic components of the antioxidant defense system in different clinical forms and stages of multiple sclerosis. The data obtained support the role of oxidant stress in the development of the pathological process in multiple sclerosis.
